Awesome!

As a pro-tip, some people complain that the lowest setting on the HMW is still too intense for them. There are two common methods of dealing with this.

The first is simply to drape a washcloth over your clitoris to act as a mechanical damper. You'd likely want to use something soft, fairly thick, and I'd recommend wetting it with warm water, which will both make it a more efficient mechanical damper and serve to relax the muscles surrounding your pubic area.

The second is to use a voltage controller, commonly a fan-speed controller like this one, to vary the voltage reaching the HMW. While some users have advocated this method, I've looked into the theory along with other users, and it was inconclusive whether the motor used in the HMW can be safely or effectively regulated through voltage modulation. Be aware that if you attempt this, you definitely run the risk of potentially burning out the motor of your HMW, and if left unattended, it could even potentially cause a fire.

If you want to be particularly adventuresome, there are also a number of aftermarket (third-party) heads that are sold as attachments for the HMW. Certainly worth looking into if you think you might be the kind of girl that prefers vaginal stimulation to clitoral stimulation.

Best of luck to you!

Ninja-Edit: Definitely thought I was posting this to /r/sex based on the subject matter. If you have any questions, success stories, etc., I would highly recommend posting them over there. It's an absolutely amazing, knowledgeable, supportive, and accepting community where you can seek advice or merely share in the knowledge that there are lots of people in the same boat as you. Following that sub changed my sex life, and arguably my life as a whole.

Looks good. I ordered the same, went for the Phidget and a controller.

Only thing I wish I had done was loctite all the screws the FIRST time I did them instead of adding loctite piecemeal now.

Voltage controller

I have heard of that issue before but I have not experienced it with my
Speedster Step Less Fan Controller on either my old VenTech or my new Vortex.

I have 1600W in an 8x4 tent cooled with a single 440 CFM inline fan - so yes, it should be quite sufficient for a single 600W. You may want to also get the suggested router speed controller, since 440 CFM may be overkill on full power.

They sell the same controller at Harbor Freight for $20.

I've used a super ambi lowel kit for years (as a mobile shooter) and they are great lights, if you know how to use them. I shot 4 spots for a major tech company last week and used my 6 light kit to great effect. You can get some gel frames for these lights and use basic diffusion instead of the umbrellas. Grab a couple of these and use them as dimmers: http://www.amazon.com/SE-Electronic-Stepless-Speed-Controller/dp/B000HQAVNI/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1394512495&sr=8-2&keywords=router+control

as it turns out, the intake and exhaust housing funnel lots and lots of air into and around the motor. would this compensate for heat buildup?


i found this on amazon but i'm not sure if it's what you were talking about. is it considered a variable frequency drive?

The iPower fans seem to be junk. Here's the one I bought: a 6" Hydrofarm, 400CFM (actually an ActiveAir brand fan). Much better than the 175 the ipower 6" was pushing.

It's loud at full blast, and probably more than you need. This is good though, because you can get a speed controller to turn it down. The fan gets much quieter even at 75%, and I run mine at less than 50% to cool my small cab w/aircooled 400w HPS. You can get this speed controller if you don't mind a slightly annoying electric hum from your fan (I have this and sleep in the room with it at night), or you could get the more expensive variac controller that eliminates this hum (and probably helps your fan last longer too).

The centrifugal inline fans are much more powerful than the axial booster fans, and will force air through a carbon filter easily, so get one that is sized correctly for the fan. (heres mine, sized for that hydrofarm/activeair fan)

I keep a steady 78º-79ºF in the cabinet (2.5'x1.5'x4' grow space) with 75º-77ºF ambient room temps, and the air exhausted right back into the room (central air keeping the room at 76ºF helps).

Get one of these - they are cheap and totally worth it.

I had a TD-100 (100 CFM) that wasn't powerful enough to really pull through my 200 CFM-rated Phresh carbon can.

Also, the TD-100, even on high setting, would barely turn on unless the fan speed controller was dialed almost to maximum speed.

I replaced the TD-100 with a TD-150 (300 CFM, 6", big brother). That thing works GREAT with the speed control.

I suspect your TD-125 will be fine with the speed control, esp. if you rewire it to the faster setting internally.

Worth the $20 or so, hands down.
