Turns out using an input fan doesn't do much more than just open vents for reducing humidity in my tent - and as it's in my bedroom it isn't worth the noise. I have a Ts1000 and the light coming out is very bright, how do you deal with problematic light? I'm thinking strategically drilled holes in 5 inch drain pipe. But before I pull off a drain pipe is there a simple way of dealing with this? Any ideas or products you could point me at? Thank you.

You could get a pair of ear buds and play some "white noise" to cover up the fan noise along with a sleep mask.

Is this set-up in your bedroom? Why?

My wife wanted to move nearer the kids so we moved to a tiny house - the bedroom is the only private space we have, there's no linen cupboards or a big pantry and our garden is communal and the attic is about 3 foot high.

First time posting!

I just designed and 3D printed a light trap vent for my closet. I can share the .stl file if you are still interested and have a 3D printer. I also found one online that you can buy (link).
 
Are you saying that the light emitting from your passive vents at the bottom of the tent is too bright at night?

edit - just realized that this is an older thread.
