Isn't it something? I think the pics speak for themselves. The exterior is 100% Canadian Red Oak. It rolls quietly on concealed 2" swivel casters.
The veg space has four two-foot Cool Whites on F40 ballasts, delivering a broad spectrum light at around 8,000 lumens. It has its intake at the bottom for the coolest air with the highest CO2 content.
The bloom area employs a 250 HPS lamp with 18" Daylight sidelights also on F40 ballasts. The hood is a passively shielded Gullwing reflector and is cooled with an extremely quiet fan. For your safety a Lucite heatshield minimizes heat within the canopy. The screen is dished to match the range of the lamps, the edges reaching right up under the fluoros.
The blue from the High-Powered Fluorescent Lighting augments the HPS bulb so that internodal distances remain short. Not only is the colour shift apparent, but the effective range of the bulb is extended to make even the farthest corners productive. Though HPS alone is considerably more efficient than fluoros, heat and light distribution is considerably improved when they are combined, which is important in a confined space. Many people are far more comfortable with fluorescents than HPS lights operating in their homes.
Each hood has its own power, air, and light distribution system. Each has a fan-speed controller to balance noise level against temperature. There is a ventilated space between the two areas so the fluoro ballasts won't heat up the reservoir in the bloom cabinet.
Pretty cool, eh?
