    Default Ruck fan speed reducer exist?

    Just a quick question.

    I have a ruck 5inch extraction fan going. It did the job for 250w hps in small tent.

    Now I have gone back to LEDs so don't need as much air moved for heat.

    Is there something I can buy and plug the fan into to reduce the fan speed?

    Cheers Ben

    Cheers AND I knew you could by fans with them built in but wasn't sure if you could just by something to plug them into that worked.

    Going to go and check them out.

    Thanks

    Put your number you gave into the bay AND.

    It came up but the brand was Mercury? It's £7.16 which is fine just want to make sure it's the right one.

    Cheers

    They're all pretty much the same internally, got mine for £6 from my local hydro shop

    Your right AND they all look the same set up.. ie white,kind of pear shaped with a round dial thing at the top.

    The are all around £7 to £8 on the bay. Just bay prices are always a little dearer and there's no grow shops near me.

    Will be ordering soon. (Bloody bank holidays) LOL.

    Thanks for the help.
