Posted - 30/04/2012 : 11:50:28 A bit of DIY broke out over the weekend ready for the new arivials later this week. It's a basic frame that can take any size tubs from 12-50L running off a heatstrip that can be slid forward or back, depending on the tub size. I've got it set up on a B2 pulse stat and a Lucky Reptile thermo/hydro combo monitor
Gonna let the setup settle in and make any adjustment as required
Thanks for looking
Mat

11"x35" mat installed and all is well. Temps holding at 90-93c hot end and 80-82 cool end without any input from the ceramic.
I've knocked up a fogger for the CRB this week as well, but that's for another thread |

Much happier
Thanks all for the inputs, when I go up to the 50L rubs I'll be closing the back off and doubling up on the heatmat size. That should cure it |

The heat strip put out nowhere near enough heat, i think the best i got was 84 at the hot end. I had to go out to the LRS and I now have the mother of all ceramic bulbs in there as well. Lol
Tepms have settled at 90-91c with 77% humidity. I'm expecting that to drop as the aspen dries a little over night, fingers crossed.
Not sure how I'm gonna get around when it comes time to get the 50L rubs, as they're an exact fit. Bigger heat mat maybe?
I built my own rack system and haven`t had any probs with temps, however i do have the back completely sealed off with its own panel of wood and the tubs fit in nice and tight. |
