I think it's these http://www.agarscientific.com/polypropylene-petri-dishes.html

They're definitely 5cm and the price seems the same as what I paid.

Ah that is super rad. Thanks for the link. Question now is can you prepare pour pc and then just open the PC up infront of the fh and seal them up? I wonder if you could get them in a jar and just seal the lid when you open the PC and they would last a while? How are you guys using them?

You can get an inverter but good ones aren't cheap.


And drum roll please... :laugh:rumroll:

I got a lame as kitchen aid mixer 5l.  The buyer had 26 colours to choose from and they picked gray... What a boring fucking life they must live..

I pour them, wrap them in tinfoil (you can reuse the tinfoil many times) and PC them well above the water line.

Then I take them from the PC into the SAB and remove the tinfoil.

That's a great idea about doing them in a jar. If I don't use them right away I just put them in a sealed plastic tub. Then I wipe the tinfoil with surgical spirit before putting them in the SAB.

I know fuck all about leccy but do 110v to UK mains adapters exist?




Yeah they do. I dunno price but B n Q do em. Some power tools like makita are 110v.




Yes, building sites use 110V as it is safer and might be a legal requirement.

Many lower power devices will run at 230V just read the details. What is the device/thing? If it is a lower power device it can be used with a small and cheapish step down transformer. If it is a powerful item the transformer will be big, often nasty looking and expensive. With some things the frequency will also be an issue, I read of people trying to use kitchenaid mixers and I think the motor did not run well at 50Hz, it is 60Hz in the US.

Selling it to another 110V country could be an option. If a 230V version is also sold many parts on the 110V might be the same might be of use to someone. You might also just have to replace a couple of cheap parts to turn it into a 230V version. I design machines that sell for thousands but can be easily converted for under 100.

Hey blackout, would you mind telling me your thoughts on running this one in a 23OV 50Hz country? I myself was thinking of a step-down converter rated for 10A from 220V to 127V, Hz not specified, old converter but costs me significantly less than newer and better ones. Like divide price by 4.

2x2 ENVIRCO hepa unit with 110V blower...

They upped the price after I bought it, I linked it to some folks here, wouldn't be surprised it generated more views and maybe an order more, giving them the incentive to up the price... :thumbdown: Was 75 when I ordered...

wow, check this shit out!

Wilko's are selling 12 pint jars, (with holes already in the lids) for £2!


So I've not had a chance to PC them, so I've not idea if they're ok for that, they're not super sturdy, but no worse than my recycled pickle jars. I guess I'l always make sure I vent the PC slowly, and let you all know how I get on with them
can get 6 in my PC which is pretty sweet :highfive:

We have those here as well, and although I haven't bought those ones, I can say that glassware coming from the store that also sells these with us, has not always held up in the PC for me. I think the cheaper glass jars are not always properly tempered, and therefore crack more easily.

ah yeah, I thought as much... I figured for £2 it'd be worth a try
I'll keep my ears open for cracking jars then
cheers fella!

Not sure, all I know is motors seem to have more of an issue than say heating elements. Its odd your link says 110V blower, but when I click on it there is no mention of 110V. It gives a part number Part # 69406005, and when I search that number most are calling out 220V (a couple had 115V)

https://www.amazon.com/Envirco-69406005-Enclosure-missing-pre-filter/dp/B01E66P90E

I know in the US many things in more industrial environments are connected to a 220V supply

another here with the same part number and listing 220V

Here's what they sent me after contacting them:

Hi -my name-,

Here are the specifications for the HEPA booths.  Any questions please let me know.  Thanks.

120 volts
4.9 Amps
588 Watts

-his name-

:shrug:

I asked for more info after, but I mentioned I already ordered one, I'm thinking they took that as a sign to just stop putting energy in my inquiries. After all, why keep putting energy in a closed deal :waits:

This right here is wrong btw. It's the amps that kill you, not the volts. So a device running on 110V drawing 10 amps  would be more dangerous than a device running on 220V drawing 5 amps. Just to clarify.

hello

getting into growing again after a few years
i have spent a lot of time reading teks and tips following trusted cultivators.
so far i upgraded my old PC to a 23qt presto and got lots of stuff in my ebay basket. i add and take as i go on while changing my plans. i will start with 4 monos following franks 12 step tek with bods easy af oat prep twist.
the are a few things i haven't settled on yet

lid filter. sfd is so hard to come by spent hours looking here and online and its either very expensive or i am unsure if it suitable because of lack of details. i rather not use poly it seems messy

jars. the only reason i want to import quart jars because i know everyone use them here and i can fit 10 into my new PC 100% i wonder if there is a pp5 equivalent ? i would love clear pp5 instead of glass that is stackable. jars take so much space. anyone found a good alternative for quart jars in the uk for a good price? i would prefer screw top but i take what i can get if i can stack them while empty.

i think i got everything else already in my bag.

great topic thanks for all the contributors, a lot of info was golden in the past few weeks.

Have a look on ampulla for pp5 jars. They do bulk orders too. As for SFD I found some on eBay but they're probably a bit pricey or you could order some tyvek sleeves and cut em to size.

I looked ampulla already (thanks to this thread) but the ones they do in 1000ml size aren't stackable, or bucket shaped - can't put 3 next to each other in the 23qt pc (I checked measurements)


Regarding sfd  - I found a dude called grower here who also has a YouTube channel and a big myco lab. He used a stiff, heavy duty felt 3-5mm thick and he melts a hole in his lid with a torch and a piece of metal and use the warm plastic to aid the piece of felt to the jars. Very clean,easy and convinient. I spend the whole last day researching , googling, ebaying to find any of the filters above. The ones actually rated to filter 0.22micron are so expensive on eBay and there isn't any on google..

I was gifted a sheet of this:



not sure where it came from in the world. but perhaps you can find some here?
I've used it many times with excellent success. it's PC's fine and kept dry seems to be a winner! :cookiemonster:
just cut it out to about the size of £1 coin, drill a hole in the lid, smooth off the edge, and attach with silicon ( I got a tube from Poundland, works perfect) leave for 24 hours et voila!


**update** the jars i got from Wilkos all survived their first PC. I'll let you know if I get any losses. I'm concerned about breaking up the spawn... so we'll see :laugh:

Thanks for the reply

I found ptfe teflon sheet which is apperantly the best type of sfd on eBay now for reasonable price
Apperantly the ~4mm thick stiff felt also works

I came accord these 1,3L clear screw top plastic jars under 70p
https://oipps.co.uk/1-3-l-pet-cylindrical-jar-1

Can't stack them, not sure if it survive a PC run, larger than a quart jar but it's a good price and while I won't experiment with it myself others might find it uselful.

PET is no good for pressure cooking sadly. It'll melt.
