how are you gonna ventilate it? I'm gonna start using a mini fridge for clones but I can't figure out what I'm gonna do for intake/outtake fans.

could get awat with a 250w with enough ventilation but im after something more stealth and a big noisy fan aint gonna help me
I cooled my 150 HPS with a 4" 76 CFM (31dB) axial and a single, matching 4" passive intake. The 250 CMH turned my cab into an easy bake oven. Like a fool, I got an inline and blew my stealth to hell. Once the grow was finished, I cut a second passive intake and returned to my axial fan.

The axial is not silent. However, it and the slight hmmmm of the ballast combine to sound exactly like ... well, an old freezer. Short of moving the fan into another room, silence isn't going to happen. The key is to mask the noise with something louder (radio) or to pin the noise on something else (aquarium, computer, freezer.)
