Can filter 50 or 66?

I dont plan on letting the plants get to the top of the tent and even if they did I can't imagine the scrubber would be in the way too much since the light would be up there too. Thanks for all the input guys!

I have NEVER seen a Can filer last longer than 14 months. Never.

mountain air filters last a LONG time

What's the general consensus on how many pounds of carbon are needed per 1kw of light?

As others said, Can 50 or 66 is enormous for a DR80. I use a Can 33 in a GL120 (slightly larger than DR 80). My fan is a S&P TD-150 on low (rated ~215 cfm). My run is filter->fan->hood->out, and it's a perfect amount of ventilation for the 1kw in the hood.

This may be caused by a buildup of dust/humidity.

IMHE, one can't have a filter that's too big. Too small, yes. One that "works," sure. Too big, not really, and there are benefits to the concept. Namely, effectiveness and longevity.
