Question
I'm curious...Has anyone come up with a way to track the air movement within and coming out of an enclosure??

I've heard some use packing peanuts, but when I tried broken up styrofoam,it does nothing...

Anybody come up with a way...?? [img]graemlins/dunno.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/banghead.gif[/img]

You have to be able to hit over 100 dB for it to work [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Try taping some tissue paper to the area you want to see. and use longer strands of tissue or christmas tinsle. you can use tiolet paper in case you need it asap and cant get to a store. we tried the latter and it worked fine. we were able to map out the flow and record it to watch it over and over again.
