Need help making a decision. My flow hood is 24x24, 99.97% efficiency. I'm looking to upgrade to 99.99, but couldn't find a 24x24 rated @ 99.99% without 4-5 week lead time. I've begun considering FFUs (love the sleekness of them, my space is very very tight / low ceilings & small rooms), particularly the following ebay listing (because it ships from the US and will get here faster): https://www.ebay.com/itm/HEPA-Fan-filter-unit-FFU-208-230v-Fits-US-T-bar-UL-listed-Cleanroom-99-997/222332543403?hash=item33c40d61ab:g:GR4AAOSwiDFYQGmo
Note that in the listing, the cfm is 500-700. Being that the surface area is 8 sq. ft, I'd need at least 800 cfm (*under ideal conditions*) to meet the desired air speed of 100 f/m (..right?). Woul you say this FFU is not suitable for mycological work due to it's low cfm? If it is suitable, would you consider it a good product?
*edit: I also meant to ask if you know where I might find hepas ready for shipment rated @ 99.99% with approx dimensions 24x36x6 or 24x48x6

Not quite as dangerous but my thumb is in pieces after my first attempt at polyfil lids, I did 16, wasn't careful enough with the metal burrs when stuffing the holes. I think most of them aren't tight enough 
I solved those problems by buying a more expensive drill bit made specifically to cut metal, rather than the cheaper general purpose ones for wood or metal. It's sort of a brass color, and it cuts nice clean holes. No more bleeding.

I used a Phillips and the other end of it to smash down the burrs just forgot a few times. I couldn't use my thumb to unlock my phone last night as it was so messed up haha.

I'd say you're better off going with the Myers FFU. I'd bookmark their website as i'm pretty positive there will be a restock of the 2x4 FFU's this month.
The unit you posted would be fine as well, you'll just pay a bit more with that shipping cost.

Myers was selling them for $850 shipped I believe, so the listing I posted was actually slightly cheaper ($833). Though I now realize that unit is 220v, so it won't work for me anyway. I'd buy from Myers right now if he had them in stock (he said Jan/Feb - I emailed him asking for an update in December but haven't gotten anything back yet).
*editL you're right, $759 shipped. Think I'll just chill out and wait until he restocks.. FFUs are kind of on the rise here, they seem to be working pretty well. Bit nervous to drop $800 on a new trend though.

The 2x4 ffu is beyond worth it if you have the money. I would’ve probably never spent that much on one unless I had tried it at a friends or something.
Now that I’ve used it I could definitely see dropping the cash.

So that’s what happened to meaculpa 
Fucking people man. I wonder if he was tripping when he decided to become one with the mycelium. Apparently it started colonizing his blood and organs. Idk if I buy it though seems more likely to be something other than cube myc.

lol that does sound like mea culpa
While I don't doubt death would likely result, I feel like it would not be because the spores grew. Isn't body temp well above their range Feel like an embolism would be the more likely cause.
Note: not a medical profession and could be talking out of my ass here. But it IS Yahoo news, so......

A friend just said 1g of subtropica was like "5 G of cubensis"
And that it was dark and majestic Still haven't tried them myself
Got more spores to share Just pm.
Currently: having problems cloning subtropica fruits, every tissue sample is heavily covered in green in the dish by the time the myc recovers, what to do dear masters

I think thats a crock of shit. The human body would be inhospitable to myc. We also have an immune system. People get bored and post ridiculous shit like that.

Yeah, if the syringe was super dirty with a bacteria that caused sepsis maybe, but a normal human body would filter that shit out within the hour

I have no doubt that some jackass did try it. But yeah, the bit of basic anatomy that I know says it's a really bad idea that could result in death, but not from growing spores. Maybe from hemorrhaging or an embolism. Maybe the spores could clump up like in a MSS and block on artery causing a heartattack or storke. No clue how spores would interact with the blood brain barrier. Just.....no...... spores did not grow in anyone's body.

If anything I think it would be myc strands that would take off, definitely not spore.
It just seems way more likely to have been bacteria. Supposedly they cleaned his blood with a dialysis machine and sent him home eventually. Who knows if it’s for real.
No idea what subtropica is but I believe it. After only eating cubes for so long it’s pretty astounding to find out how weak they are compared to everything else.

You all are making me fucking nervous here about giving myself test injections and realizing to inoculate a jar of spawn I do it with a culture cleaned on agar, after using alcohol on a ship, in front of a fucking flowhood.
But for test into my own fucking body?, jab into vial, jab into leg, inject. Haven't used an alcohol swab in years.
Priorities though, iso is still scarce.
