MattGecko Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 Its a good kit, I use a similar one. You will need to build a canopy to house it though. Link to comment

cj_basser Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 IF you were to put it in the cube, you would need at least a 4" cooling fan, plus a chiller. the MH woudl absolutly bake that water Link to comment
SLOreefer Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 not too true, although i dont htink it is the safest thing to do ccjung from nanocustoms.com has done it and is figuring out the issues. he hasnt had too many heat problems with proper venting. he has pictures of his hood on here somewhere, just dont rememebr where. sooo i say it can be done i also say proceed with extreme caution Link to comment
