      Hey Peter,

      Forget those namby-pamby 28cfm fans. You need a couple of these:

      Got a question about controllers? Ask away...

      Hey SDguy, have you changed out your fans yet? I'm just wondering how you like the stealths? Are they pretty quiet? I'm actually thinking about getting a couple... TIA!

      Actually, I have not used the stealths yet. But I do need to change out my canopy fans soon

      Peter, do you have the fans for air movement inside the canopy, or are you using them to bring fresh air INTO the canopy, and exhaust air OUT of the canopy? I'm building a canopy now, and am wondering how big to make the holes in the canopy to accomodate fans. TIA.

      This seems like a great deal, not much noise for the SY1225SL12M model, and still pushes lots of air...

      You could always buy more multiple cheap fans, a controller, and run them at lower speeds.

      I'd say the noctuna fans would be best, as you need air movement more than pressure

      LOL, sorry, missed your post

      Yes, two fans in the canopy. One in each back corner, both blowing air in, so the hot air exits the center of the entirely open back of the canopy...
