This is the fan that's gonna be used, it's a 410cbm/h: https://greenweedshop.de/shop/images/inline_3.jpg

The fan is supposed to be hanging from rubber bands, usually used for bikes - I am curious to see how that works out. The carbon filter is huge and will defintely take up more space than I would want it to, even when placed horizontally - I might try placing it outside of the cab. I've gotta see what everything looks like once it arrives.


Those light traps are exactly what I've been looking for, whereabouts do you buy them? Do you have a website translator, a free one, so I can read this, http://forum.hanfburg.de/fhb/showthread.php?t=160044. By rubber bands, I know the type you mean, they would work perfectly.

The whole lay-fan-on-weather-stripping plan worked really well in terms of damping vibrational noise. The fan isn't actually screwed down or anything; just its weight and tightness in the hole I cut, and the ducting attached to the top (exhaust) and bottom (intake) holds it in place.

Was curious to know how effective the weather stripping is in absorbing the vibration? That seems like a very logical setup taking into consideration the dimensions. What's that DORAN light trap your using for passive intake, wouldn't mind checking out whoever sells them. I notice your fan is connected too unisulated ducting, or is that the type with the yellow foamy stuff inside, instead of out?
