It has a dedicated 4" blower that runs the whole time the light is on. It never has a chance to heat up. Touching the tube would be fine, like I am doing in this picture. The glass stays cool. The light radiates warm rays buy not enough to burn or damage plants. I have the light right on the plants today.

thanks for the demo.This may be a stupid question but do you think that 2x 4" computer fans will do the job in getting air in and out enough to keep it cool

I re-did my vents and blower set-up six times. I always underestimate how hot it gets in the summer here. I can't draw air from inside my home. If I don't cool my 400w bulb the room will get over a 120 degrees on a cool day. My advice is "over-kill the hell out of your ventilation system". You can always add a dimmer switch Peace, R. |

Thanks for the kind words. I rebuilt this closet about 5 times. I love making stuff myself. I shop around for my junk to try and save money when I have to. I'm in my 40's and have a pretty good job, so I can afford to spend on my hobby. That does not mean I toss money out on every cool gadget. I built most my CO2 system (not the meter). I am in the process of moving the CO2 tanks from inside the grow to the attic. I have to run steel pipe the whole way.
The guys at the welding shop that I buy CO2 from asked "what are you using CO2 for?". I replied "SCUBA-diving, bucause CO2 is cheeper then compressed air". *Thats not the funny part*.............The funny part is they all agreed. True story. R |

After I have this closet working perfect, I plan on following this hobby in the direction of what "Mister Postman" is doing. I like what he has done for indoor growing enthusiast such as myself. If you don't know what I'm talking about, then you have to see what your missing http://forum.grasscity.com/grow-jour...oset-grow.html .
Peace, R. |
