Yeah fuck. Prob gonna get to mid 80s for a bit

I can remote into my home ac and crank house down to 60 to help offset it

I’m currently at day 56F in Colorado with these temps/humidity common at night (lights off) because of the ridiculous amount of rain we’re getting.

I’m pretty worried, but just maintaining constant airflow and good circulation like everyone else has been saying and :crossed_fingers: no issues yet. I can’t run a dehuey due to electrical wiring/capacity issues, so I gotta live with it. I’m going to defoliate heavily today and hope for the best.

I had my significant other bounce home from work and check. 74* and humidity down to 45 in the tent.

I told her to leave it on for time being and I’ll drag it out later tonight.

74* doesn’t seem to bad with it in there but then again that’s lights out…… with light it will increase I’m sure.

The nice part is I have it set to 45* so when it hits there it cycles off and the heat doesn’t get to bad

I assume your advice is still to remove it? I actually had the idea to buy another to put inside my other tent :man_facepalming::man_facepalming::man_facepalming:

Well you just saved me $300 on another dehumidifier. What I really should do is reverse my exhaust so it’s closer to my room w: the drain. Then put the Dehumid by the exhaust so it’s sweeping all the humid air away.

Right now my drain is closest to intake side so I’m running Dehumid outside of my intake side sucking “dry air inside”

I’m just really gonna get a ton of air moving and pray for best

Up top is an AC Infinity Cloudray S6 that was just replaced under warranty after the last one stopped oscillating at around 7mo of use.

I have an AC Infinity T6 exhaust fan with the old style controller, high humidity set to 60% so it runs on speed 7 nearly nonstop with an 8" flexible duct fresh air inlet below the Cloudray pole.

Under the canopy I have an old fan pointed up and diagonal towards a wall to keep the lower canopy circulating properly too. Somewhat more angle than shown in this pic:

If you can raise the temp a few degrees that will lower your humidity as well.

Dual ge50 pint Dehumid an and lung room is now 40RH lights out and my two tents are 49RH lights out, only took an extra 1000w power draw :rofl::rofl:

I have the same 2 dehus haha. 650w at the wall each. Just checked the kasa plug. Suck the power down but necessary in certain environments!!

Fuck! I was hoping less! Is there way to get them to auto shutoff at certain humidity? I’m looking at a commercial one tomorrow found one that draws 650 but good for 280ppd and 380cfm vs the 180cfm ours is

Isn’t it the grey one with built in pump? It has the setting on top to set the RH you want. It shuts off at that setting and comes back on a few points higher.
Also I found the cfm plenty on the 50pt, but it just can’t dehumidify fast enough.

Yup! Built in pump and then came w the 16 ft drain hose.

I haven’t ever seen mine off lol. It stays on nonstop. Even with the second now and both set to 45 they just keep going. I have one on the intake side of my tent and one on the exhaust side.

How do you calculate how much that power useage cost per month at 500w or whatever you said it is. Let’s say if your electric is .10c for example

Both of the ones I have cycle for sure.
650w=.65kw
.65 x 24(hours)=15.6kwh per day if it runs constant
15.6 x .10 = $ 1.56 per day not cycling.

Depending on setting (45%) mine run about 6 and 7hrs a day each. That will vary on humidity room size, plant count, + + +.

When they go off the fan just shuts off? That’s how you know it’s cycling?
