Re: Help with Flowhood build, confused about WG, SP, CPMs... [Re: Aegis]
    #26374236 - 12/11/19 12:02 AM (4 years, 2 months ago)

I finished building my flowhood. However, I first wired my 1TDT8 on high power, and I couldn't keep a lighter lit less than 2 feet away from the filter, however the flame would turn at a 45-85 degree angle with no turbulence. I couldn't really keep the flame lit very long even holding it in still air without it burning my fingers.

I then rewired the blower to the low setting which is around 200 CFM less. This time I could get the lighter about a foot closer but that's about it. I ran out and got 3 prefilters and put them against the blower intake and still could only get 2 or 3 inches closer to the filter.

There isn't any issues keeping my butane torch lit when I set it as low as I can, but I know a torch is a little more powerful than a lighter.

Is there any way you recommend to get the blower a little weaker? I feel a little silly adding even more prefilters. Some people have suggested a fan speed controller and others have recommended physically blocking the intake with some wood or something. I was really worried my blower was gonna be underpowered but apparently its overkill
