Yea I'm not gonna run an A/C, I dont think I will be able to hook my filter up to my light because I'm going with a cheap reflector and it doesnt have the port on it.

Not sure yet. I'm trying not to make this really expensive. But it seems thats the only way to do things. I'm thinking about a 4" fan but I know I should go with a 6".

I think I'm getting a 250 CFM fan, Says that it only costs like 9 cents a day to run 24/7. I'm thinking I'm also gonna get a cool tube.

Harry_Ba11sach said: much. a normal reflector is specifically designed to evenly distribute the light over a larger area so that almost all 360 degrees of light being emitted by your bulb is reflected back onto your garden for maximum efficiency. with a cool tube you lose a ton of that light because it goes past the reflector on the sides, as well as the uneven coverage underneath it. just think about the difference in shape and you'll see what I mean
Fuck. Do you think I could cover it with foil ! The only reason I was thinking about it was because I can hook up ducting to it and its not too pricey.
