ya that sounds very high. a larg milk jug holds only 4l and is getting relativly close to a cubic foot

i am shure that some one has the exact figure but just take some cardboard and wip up a quick 12"x12"x12" box and filler up. u will get your answer real quick.

also if u are making a sealed inclosure the volume is nota huge isue any how.
