My biggest Air and Light Panel, or AL Panel, in the style of CR Box natch. A mere 1.9” thick! 9 white RGB fans taped to a filtrete 14x14x1 merv 13. Fans are rated 495cfm on max, CADR unknown. No floorspace nec; hang it on the wall, tilted enough for good airflow. #ALPanel#CRBox
Now I’m sucking through the filter, but these fans we part of my previous CR Box that was pushing through the filters. Took a long time to clean the fans, can’t recommend pushing! Get the air cleaned before hitting the fans, always, even if it looks worse
In horizontal position it has a pretty sci-fi vibe. Reactor core / space ship vibez.
uses 20 watts when fans and LEDs are turned up. 48db at 1m on high. Just based on siting in front of it I think it’s prob 1/3-1/2 the CADR of a lasko crb on low. But it’s 14”x14”x1.9” and uses 1/3 the energy, expect lower performance. Still it’s pushing lots of clean air
It’s close to the window and the setting sun is lighting up the filter behind the fans…sublime IAQ 😂
I should say this build is an advanced model. If you dig the idea but have little or no electronics experience, start with this one: it’s based on a 3 fan Asiahorse matrix that has one wire for all the fans instead of 9. It’s much simpler and like 65-75% as cool
Or this for the easiest. Only one fan limits the complexity of the LED display a lot; it’s never as cool, so the 3 fan matrix is better if that’s the appeal
Back side is pretty nice too. Since it looks good both ways this could be a restaurant divider etc
Gotta tag @Asiahorse_PC for having engineers that design the best RGB Fans controllers on earth! Niche concept I know, but I’ve tried them all and asiahorse is playing 3D chess compared to the others. Thanks Asiahorse!
Here it is, BTS, the brain that makes the beautiful patterns. Controls each fan separately. Most controllers just do the same pattern on every fan, some can do 5 fans, but this one can individually address each fan in the AL Panel, up to 10. Comes with the FS-9002 fans only
Here’s how it looks from outside and behind, at night. Fun for neighbors too! 😂

I got a PlusLife tester and it’s been a total gamechanger. Doing 3-4 people in one batch means you can test a whole family of guests and know with 99% accuracy that they are C negative. For CC ppl it’s an amazing sense of relief vs RAT. Knowing ppl don’t have it is priceless rn
With the discount code it’s $210 for the machine; tests are $7/each for Covid, $14 for COVID/FLUA/B. They also have MPX tests, $9. It runs off a USB battery, super portable. I tested more than 20 ppl in batches at the memorial. Absolutely changed our relationship w indoor parties
Here are the discount codes. Order lots of extra swabs if you plan to batch test (30 extra per 10 pack), they use their own swabs and the Amazon swab option is not the same, but prob works (I had to use them because I didn’t order enough). Shipping takes 10-14 days
It’s all leftover pro grow gear n so this would be stupidly expensive for home use, but I had this stuff so here it is. It has a digital controlled electronically commutated motor, high cfm/pressure with lowest noise possible. Great under pressure, CADR should be high % of 710cfm
You can smoke indoors and not smell it at all shortly thereafter. Farts simply disappear 😂 It’s massive overkill but it’s probably as good as VOC filtering can get for space/noise. Fresh AF
For my disability there comes a time when only skilled therapeutic neuromuscular massage can help me, and my doc recommends it. Here’s how I’ve done it, many times since 2020, without catching anything:🧵
1. I pay extra to do it at home. So I can control ventilation.
2. Therapist I’ve known for years, vaxed and fully boosted, claims he’s never had it. I trust him generally
3. He came w surgical, I gave him a fresh KN95 and molded out the pointy tip for him. He wore it no issue
4. Table In middle of living room, Doors open to outside, HVAC fan/filter ON, 2 Warp Core DAiFUs in the room on high.
5. Sinus rinse and CPC mouthwash after for good measure.
Here’s the Micro Core. Fan, filter, usb fan adapter, usb plug. Legs are random bits I had, and optional.
The Maxx Core would be the same but the fan is RGB so there’s an added wire for that, made of a USB to sata adapter and an RGB fan controller. Most won’t want RGB, but that’s what I have so I used it. Otherwise, same elements as Micro Core.
The cheapest and easiest build I’ve got. Based on my new go-to Trusens Odor / VOC filter with HEPA n lots of carbon, this time in Small. It’s $37 now, usually 49. Fan is $15.
$56 all in for 50-100 cfm CADR HEPA and VOC
USB powered plug and play no effort!
It’s a great filter. It’s open on both sides, so find a flat surface to put it down onto upside down, then drop any 140mm fan on top. The filter comes w foam surrounds that make a seal w table and fan. Plug into USB (or 120) and voila! I am going to be sharing a few versions.
Here’s the filter. I’ve tested it and it’s the best I’ve found at this size, kills smells and COVID 24% off right now

The Warp Core Fandelier Maxx Build Thread is here!
Just cleaned it, upgraded the filter and took pics the whole way. So follow along here if you want to know how to build a ~200+ CADR HEPA and VOC filter that’s quiet, powerful, effective, unique and special looking to boot.
