blocks light not air

I love the product I would recommend it to anyone and I can't say one thing that I dislike about it only positive things.

Absolutely perfect product as described and I highly recommend it to anyone.

I seen this louver in the catalog, the price is great. Not only the price but the louver does not only work sufficiently but is also light tight ! I wouldn't shop anywhere else for my darkroom supplies then Adorama. Price is excellent so is the shipping. Not to mention the customer service.

I seen this louver in the catalog, the price is great

If the sun is hitting this louver directly, it blocks maybe 95% of the light.  It is still useable for me since I can make a mod to my setup to eliminate the remaining 5%.

Should perform to 100% light tightness if it's installed in a shady area.

Not 100% light tight.

I had one for several years before I had to clean it out.  I got one more recently to get more air flow.  they work fine and block the light.  Easily cleaned with a simple disassebly and wash.

Works and easy fix for light control

Use this product for darkroom. Works perfect.

did exactly as I hoped. Love the producy

Solidly built, this vent completely blocks incoming/outgoing light. 

Since they only stick out about 1/4" from the outer 'darkroom' wall they waste very little space, and have a clean, professional, 'stealthy' look. Can be spray painted to match your room's decor.

They are much less restrictive than another brand of 4" round darkroom louvered vent. However, these will still reduce the flow of air compared to an 8" square hole in the wall (!), so remember to provide about twice as much intake venting as the size of your exhaust fan's duct. ( I'm using two of these 8x8's as passive intake vents for my 4" exhaust fan, with good results.)

Well Made and Effective

Seems to work great.  Very easy to install and popped right in.

Works great and easy to install

these were a fair deal @ [$] each, now at [$] each they are a rip off

not bad for [$]

The only problem I have with these is the 8x8 louvers don't seem to have an airflow rating listed anywhere which is frustrating figuring your requirements for intake air.

Works great

Very easy installation, kind of like a duct register.  Of course you could build this with some plywood and black paint.

Effective and simple to install

easy to install and works very well. 
 no problems at all.
