Anyone know where I can find darkroom louvres in CANADA
Or where I could order them and have em shipped to Canada
I have seen ones on some killer stealth cabinets and would love to add them to mine.
My Mock carboard ones arn't working all that great, and they look terrible
Any help is greatly appreciated.

www.adorama.com/DKL8.html get two 8 in, They seem kind of large, but the louvers only let as much air in as about a 4 in passave intake because they are pretty filtered with the dark material.

I think I will be making my own with a normal vent or somthign from homedepot. Or trying to find a store in Canada that carrys this kind of stuff. Im in the city Toronto Canadas Biggest so somone out their has to have one.
Im thinking about cutting a large PCP pipe tube in half (so it will look like ahalf moon) and running it down my cabinet. Fuk ill think of somthing
Thanks for the help

In my veg/mother cab I use 3 2 1/2 in pvc piping for intake. I use an elbo on each pipe to help creat a small light trap, I also cover each end of the piping up with black cloth from old black socks with rubberbands and duck tape. This prevents any light geting in and dust and bugs as well. Oh yah , I also use black piping because it smuthers the reflection of light better than white piping.

that does sound like a good idea. but i want to try and keep my Cab. close to the wall behind it becasue its supposed to be a stealth cab, so I would want max 4 inches out the back. I live in basically a bachlor apartment. so Its kihnda has to be really stealth.
plus my Gf wont have that shit., me rearranging all my shit to fit my weed cab..
I think im gonna look at dryer vents at hoem Depot.
the socks idea is perfect though...
