Thats my plan :thumbsup: I'm going to hook the hdd and power leds to a battery. Already tried this small flat battery but it didnt work. Don't really know what voltage the leds need. Maybe I could also put there some kind of relay to make the other led blink. :detective1:

^^^ has a good point, the metal from the pc box is going to hold in alot of heat plus you have added mylar/foil i would suggest the same thing and paint the inside flat white.

Im in for this grow as i have a few PC cases laying around and a few 100w cfls that i can use to make this happen.
I used to mylar for one big reason, laziness. The mylar blogged the trillions of little holes all over the case and made it lightproof without a tons of work. I have to monitor the temperetares and make some changes if needed, but for now I think I'm sticking with it.
