Just thought I'd share this with y'all.

Have you seen these dehumidifiers? Stop using them or you might die.

thats great you come across that Tobh ..I think this should b at the top of the dehumidifier thread if we have one,cause this is very important.growers are only going to stumble upon this ..that goes for anything too..

yeah, i think there should be more documentation around proper use of dehumidifiers. In order for them to operate efficiently and safely, there are specific parameters that must be met. I'd even argue that dehumidifiers are the second or third major priority for safety after lights and ballasts since all three of those components generate a large amount of heat through their standard operation.

I like this. Can we start a gear topic with subtopics like humidifiers, fans, lights, etc.? We can rate from our personal experiences along with rating different sizes and functions that we would like to see going forward. Might be a good reference for these companies.
