As you can see fan and filter are not hooked up yet but you can see the orientation; ducting will be attached to the fan and out the top.

Thats got the extraction covered but the intake...
As you can see from the pic my tent is boxed in on 3 sides and as of yet i have done nothing about getting air into the box. Stealth is not paramount for this tent but i would like to keep it looking pretty much as it does now.

1- the only thing i can think of is creating some sort of lightweight light-baffle to attach to the main door flap. I am thinking that if i did this the power of my extraction would create enough negative pressure to pull air through the baffle (am i on the right lines with this thinking?)

2- is the other possible vent location.

Thanks for reading.

your intake must be 6 times bigger than your outtake if passive.....I use filter hood material off a cooker to keep bugs out. works like a charm. Id go and buy a proper tent if it was me. Youve spent money on an extractor, why not just buy a tent for 60 quid...
