So I started to smoke in the renovated shed this week, temps got down to the 40's
Not so much renovated as just cleaned out.
Added a carpet, some bar stools, a table and small heater. It does have a small window, but the smoke is a little overwhelming. I had a small fan in the window facing out but it didn't do much. Does anyoe have any suggestions on a good fan to exhaust the smoke? The only electrciity I have is an extension cord with a power strip.

if you know any contractors see about having someone keep an old bathroom exhaust fan (if you dont know anyone, they dont run an arm or leg) for you and try that. I am going to try this very soon, got 2 waiting for me

I picked up a double window fan at Lowes for this exact purpose. I was $39 i believe. You can look at it on their website. It works awesome. The great part is, you can take it out of the window when not in use.

That sounds like a better idea.

If the space is small, and the budget tight, you cant beat a window fan. If you want a little more firepower, you can go with a box fan.
Dont forget that you need a air source comming in if you want any air to go out.

Also don't forget that the more smoky air you move out, the more cold air you bring in. Box fans in windows make for cold spots in mancaves.
Bathroom fans are good for this because they don't move a ton of air, and smoke naturally rises.

Also, I had forgotten about
this, which I might end up using instead. Another BOTL here has been keeping us updated on his smoking lounge and that is what he used

I use a box fan for now, But in the cold, not so well. I do not want to open up more windows and cold airflow.. So, the fan itself.. Not so great.. Once I crack a window/door/garage door, It works wonders!
