Cheers for this guide mate - am finished and am absolutely buzzin with my fans - can't wait to take pics of em. They're cheapy 80mm pc fans I got from pc world for a fiver each, unfortunately stupid B&Q/Wickes do not sell small black plastic pvc drain covers. In place of a flange to join the fan to the elbow bend pipe I ended up fashioning little boxes out of double layers of cardboard box - each bit re-enforced with lots of red electrical then silver duct tape then taped together (all painted black inside). They're fairly sturdy & the elbow fits snugly into the hole in the cardboard, doesn't need siliconed so can be taken out/adjusted if necessary (is siliconed into the wardrobe wall, fans are taped & siliconed into the box flange holder things. I powered em with mobile phone chargers - a 12v as recommended and a 7v (all I could find) which seems to be workin fine. Was much easier to wire em up than I thought it was gonna be, actually. I then twisted the intake so it is blowing cold air into the back of my 9" desk fan, which is blowing across the plants.

Awesome guide and u really saved the day as I nearly killed my girls - its now day 5 for me, but on day 3 I had to move em off the windowsill & put em in the big pots under my 400w hps as the roots were coming thru the bottom of the little peat pots, but temps were up to 39c! I think the cheapy thermometer I got was over exaggerating things a bit though. Since the mods temps are down to 31c. I think I've done much better than I thought I would and am well proud of myself. Thank u again - will rep u into oblivion when am allowed 2 again. Suzi x
