    Default Fan controller for Systemair RVK 4"(100mm) 184m3/hr

    Hello, I hope you are all well.

    Having taken the advice from thctalk forum members I decided to not mess about or take chances and bought the Systemair RVK 4"(100mm) 184m3/hr and Pro Filter for my stealth grow space. My grow space will be (200*100*50cm - 5.9ft - 2.6ft - 1.2ft). The 2 elements I wanted to adhere too were 1. No smell and 2.no fire risk.

    Think ive taken care of the fire risk. Just lookin for controller now. Bit annoyed as I had never heard of this whilst creating the budget and so didnt budget for a fan speed controller. I did post on here and got some great general feedback but now ive narrowed down and picked the fan&filter I was wondering if anyone has any experience/recomendations what fan controller I should get. Again, annoyed I have to get this ffs.

    I dont mind a slight noise just as long as its not too loud. Ive never done electrics before and am a bit clueless although I have recently bought electrics kit for myself (soldering,multimeter,testing etc). I would be tempted to build my own if the fire risk was low enough.

    BTW i got my 2000w led light from amazon, It arrived with glass broke which again annoyed me. Emailed them and they said would send replacement out. The next day they emailed me and said having checked with their boss, and considering that the unit was expensive (£100-not expensive for a light imo) they would not be sending me a new unit out but would send me the part. Once I received it they would run me through how to fix it.

    I emailed them back and told them to f@ck off as I hadnt even switched the unit on the unit may have other faults. I want a new one.
    Next day, same email and so I contacted Amazon and then returned led back for full refund. I thought if customer service is this bad, and I only just received it, then I cant rely on unit.
    Lesson learned. Dont by lights from China. What also annoyed me was the fact that they kept calling the led light a lampshade ffs. Stupid c@nts.

    Im away to look for somewhere to buy a proper light.

    Cheers ppl
    Teddy

    Chinese sellers will do anything they can to avoid consumer laws in other countries. We had a Chinese LED seller here once as a sponsor - never again!

    That said, with the current climate, who would want anything from China?

    Anyway, with a 4" RVK, it's doubtful that you will want to reduce the speed too much, look at the SMS controllers

    I've got a variac speed controller on a rvk 100L (4in) . Was 80 off ebay about 6-7 month ago. This is a link to the wiring to the controller part, if you get one let me know and I can probably dig more snaps out if u need em

    If there isn't something you HAVE to buy then there'll be something you WANT to buy
