  1. okay so i just recently got a 1000w setup going on but im not too sure about how im going to keep the temp. cool. i have a couple of 6" oscillating clip fans but i still feel the need to buy an inline fan. will the mini fans be sufficient enough?
     
  2. well is it an air cooled reflector your using or what???
     
  3. 1000w puts out a lot of heat, just so you know I had to install a window a/c unit just to get the temps down in the high 70's. Then I had to use an inclosed reflector hood with a fan pulling in fresh cool air through a duct a blowing it out of the room. I can get it as low as low 60's now, but then again its gettin colder & colder outside. I'm confident I will still be able to maintain high 60's during the summer months. All little fans will do is circulate the heat around the room from the bulb, your going to have to exhaust the heat from the bulb almost completely out of the grow room, Cool tube might be an option, not sure what your grow room in like.
     
  4. gotcha now i just have to make a nice li'l box
