I have a vivosun tent and alot of the parts that go with it.... I just started popping seeds they are auto my first grow..... my temp has been sitting at the highest 91 but usual mid 80s inside tent humidity is always around 35 to 45%rh . So I want my setup done correctly I've been taking my time getting everything and thought an October start would help... guess not.... I dont have alot of money.... but I can make it work... so please if you will help me understand I've been reading but not understanding....View attachment 902213
Also in terms of filters activated carbon is not one and the same there are many different types and qualities. It makes a difference when performing in higher humidity, life span and effectiveness. I like phresh filters but I'm sure others have ones they can recommend also.
I wanted to show you guys the set up so far.... vivosun tent 4×4×7, LED Fineest 1000w with remote for spectrum and timer setting, obviously 5 gal dwc with the 2×4 airstone, so up top I listened to the advice given to me and I got the ac infinity t6 6" inline fan( have to love the controller and probe I have it figured out for the needs at hand for now.) Then for the carbon filter I just went with vivosun. I did have the noise silencer 6" but it would fit in the tent altogether for my liking.... what are some more ways of utilizing controllers? I would love to get it to almost fully auto but not I'm still checking on her and all....View attachment 908270

Currently neither I'm only running one girl and venting into my room and intake is by my closet and I have fans in room pointed at intake port... my temps have been at like right now 76f at 42%RH with my ac infinity t6 fan on stage 6 or 7.... I keep my a/c on with clean filters.... seems to be going alrightCurious question. Are you venting tent air to the outside or drawing outside air in?

Hmmm so you're saying to close my intake port and turn on auto mode on my t6 and run it just that way?I apologize my question was worded poorly. However your answer provided the information i was looking for.
I think you will find that you have more control drawing the air from within the tent into the surrounding room. Using your probes to activate the fan to draw out the heat or humidity as needed. Last but not least it will remove the a/c unit to the outside of the tent, thus avoiding the humidity that can shorten the life of the fan. This will also give you more room inside the tent itself as a bonus.You may need it (speaking from experiences in my current grow) .
I wish i had your room....
this is my set up nowHmmm so you're saying to close my intake port and turn on auto mode on my t6 and run it just that way?

I cant change sides the way I placed my tent in my room the intake has to be bottom left exhaust top right..... so are you talking about me taking the can outside of the tent and hook to ducting there because from what I understood either way I go with the can it reduces smell..... everyone in my complex are potheads so the smell dont matter and I have my rec also.... plus I'm always home disabled... but I know I need to set my auto mode.... so auto mode will work well?Not close the intake, you will need to draw fresh air into the tent from the surrounding room (air conditioned) some how (i suggest a piece of window screen glued over the opening to keep insects out.).
By setting your Humidity limits and your temp limits the T6 will not not run at full speed all the time. It ramps up starting at the limits you set. It will actually shut itself off if below set limits.
Based on the photo you supplied. I would suggest reversing the position of the filter,fan and vent to the other side of the tent wall (you will also need to flip which end of the fan your filter is on). The other advantage of doing this is that the heavily scented air from inside the tent is filtered before it enters the surrounding room and the rest of the house. Very handy in keeping the peace with the other half and keeping the operation as DL as possible. I currently run a T4 in my 2x4 flower cabinet, and it spends about 60% of the time running.

Is that on my t6?I cant change sides the way I placed my tent in my room the intake has to be bottom left exhaust top right..... so are you talking about me taking the can outside of the tent and hook to ducting ... Yes
so auto mode will work well?... Yes especially well if you match it with the Pulse environmental sensor mentioned previously. It will allow you to fine tune the tent and see the results graphically. As you change a feature you will get a better idea of the real impact on your tent environment.
Is that on my t6?
The Pulse One is just to have it connected to my phone for constant monitoring right?Is that on my t6?
Yeah I would have to save for that... i set my t6 to auto mode and what should i have is set as my high is 78 and my low is 68. RH high 65% low 40%..... and it's just running I think perhaps I dont get how to have it set up to the right numbersThe Pulse One is just to have it connected to my phone for constant monitoring right?
Isnt there other ones that wouldnt run me 200No sir. That little jewel will run a few bucks but well worth it. imho
