Im currently working on convertering an old tv cabinet into a box. I was wondering about ventilation. I was planning on building a small duct down both sides of it one being air in with small pc fans and the other being air out with a carbon filter.

would that work? How would you wire the fans? and what type of fan do you need to power the carbon filter?

Lets,
a simple way would be to have an intake hole, no fan, and then have a fan/duct to suck air out and thru ur filter, on a timer , depending on fan size, on 15 off an hour, on 15 and so on

with the fan sucking air out it would bring fresh air in through intake hole also.

What type of fan would you use?

If i have 2 6in booster fans pulling threw my carbon filter would that be enough airflow to not have to have an intake fan. And i have no idea how to wire the two fans.
