arcade machine

Ok, so i have been thinking about starting to grow in this old arcade machine that i got from a yard sale. Its like the kind in movie theaters and arcades. The only problem is that my room mates would not support the smell or it being obvious hence the arcade machine. I have been doing some reading about ionizers and how they eliminate smell completely, and i was wondering if anyone has used ionizers before and can attest to them working or not, or if there were any any other methods of reducing the smell in addition to ventilation. Also any other tips and advice would be appreciated.

also would a ballast system be required for this space, the floor area is 2.5ft x 2.5ft approximately

 

For smell I would build a ventlation system with a carbon filter. This would have the added benefit of reduicing heat build up in a small space. also for a space that small you might want to look into CFLs with maybe a 70w or 100w HPS added during flowering.

 

could you possibly post any pictures of said arcade machine? lol. just out of curiosity.
