Can I vent this?
Dude. Read the sticky. You want to pull the air through the scrubber. Your setup looks like this: Air in Tent > Carbon Filter > Light > Fan > Exit. You can also swap the light and the fan such that you are pushing air past the light.

Let's do the math on your CFM needs.
1. H x L x W / 5 where 5 equals the number of minutes it takes to exhaust all air from the tent.
2. Take that number and add 10% for each foot of duct, carbons scrubber and fan.
3. Take the original number from item 1 and x by 1.5 for each 90 degree duct elbow.
4. Take the original number from item 1 and x by 1.3 to account for the resistance created by the scrubber.
Add up items 1 through 4. This is the CFM of the fan you will need although you should add 15% to account for cooling needs and another 10% for good measure. Get a fan speed controller so you can dial it down.
Let me know what number you come up with. I'm curious.
