Exhaust fan?

[bloodbrother]

Is there any cheaper way to find a 300 CFM fan than paying $150-$200? Would taking apart an Oscilatting fan (so that it is just the cage, motor and fan blades) and installing it into the sealed growbox work? Or buying a wall mount fan and putting it in the box work?

u can get a 6 inch like 350-400 cfm on ebay for UNDER $120

What about an inline booster fan as the exhaust fan?

they are meant to boost air that's already flowing, so it won't put out the 300cfm like it says, just by itself, i tried it and they aren't that effective. I got a 3 speed stanley blower at walmart for $40, don't know the CFM but it's pretty powerful and works well, just a bit bulky tho.

what section are those stanley blowers in at walmart?

They they are with all the other box fans. Its black and yellow and yes they move a heck of a lot of air fast! :thumbsup:
