    Am pretty sure you needing one for air to pass the cooltube n one for the stale air

    Carbo filtter--------ducting------rvk------ducting--- smell n stale air gone

    Fresh air---ducting----cooltube-----ducting------rvk-----heat from bulb gone

    Am 99% sure that's how it works buddy but could well be wrong lol as usual

    There are two ways to use a cool tube...

    The most efficient way is to use a separate fan and drag fresh air from outside the tent through the tube & then out of the tent:- ducting from outside tent>fan>cool tube>ducting out of tent

    However, most people incorporate the cool tube into their existing extraction:- filter>fan>cool tube>out
    It's Not What You Know, It's What You Can Prove

    It works either way yop so your not wrong mukka, having 2 separate fans would work better passing cooler air through the light but the cost and noise would be higher buying and running 2 fans Plus an intake .. Just the one 6" L1 would be more than capable for a cooltube in that space.

    Yeah mate course they would be stronger without a filter .

    and in a perfect world everyone would have a fan for each
