Wizard box Update 1
Hey guys, had these puppies running at 100% for a week now, I couldn't be happier! Still more work to be done to add in the 8in outside intake and hopefully add a second centrifugal fan as a failsafe and so I can bring the outside noise down.
Finished (Phase 1) 5in outside air intake + 5in inside air intake = 8in intake, 8in exhaust with ~1200cfm centrifugal fan I managed to snag used for $75
Replaced useless laundry room window with 2x8in manifold
The door needs to be finished, same with the lid. Sound is low enough once I build the laundry room door you really won't hear it through the rest of the house.
Half occupied with my 4 s7's
Mess o' cabling
MINING FACT: In Alberta (Pretty sure it's actually a North American standard) you *CANNOT* wire up a standard 5-15 outlet with 240v and have it pass an inspection. We wired these up with simplex 240v outlets and built these adapters which are entirely acceptable to code.
Crowded exhaust
Always make sure your 240v breakers are properly ganged!
Going to be a few weeks 'til I put any more into the rig, waiting to see what the prices on these single fan s7's do because they would be a perfect fit in this box.
Until then, good mining guys!
