    Default Heat issues in uk.. inlet fan.. cool tube?

    Hi sorry for another boring thread.. but i just wanted some help as i never bought one before (cool tube)

    I tried putting a intake fan on my tent last night,...only difference i think it made was to pull more hot air from the actual room itself... inside the tent im using 1000watt on one side and 600watt on the other with parabolics...temps just before lights cut out was 34 degrees when i had both on 1000 it was about 38degrees

    Im now thinking of maybe trying a cool tube? if it will help me up to 2 x 1000watt i dont mind loosing the 10% light

    do they work? gimmik or what... i will add in all my years which is 4 iv never had this problem before... and i used to grow during the day.
    AGAINST the legalization of cannabis.. the business is already set up do you want to work for some big company at minimum wage?

    decriminalization is all we need.ask an American.. Where now they pay thc tax and can't afford enough Meds plus the card ruins most insurance ..no rant this is factual

    Someone with experience of cool tubes will be along soon, I'm sure, but the biggest challenge for me at the moment is the lack of any breeze.

    Normally, I'd have a gentle breeze blowing through my gaff in the summer, but for the last few days, it's been totally still. Doesn't seem to be much change over the next few days either.

    I've used the cool hoods as opposed to cool tubes, the same thing though.

    They definitely work and helped me maintain temps in my old loft groom.

    I’ve been running a a icarus air cooled hood for years

    Brought it when I grew in my shed and temps would regularly reach 32-36 after buying I got my temps down to 26-28

    I just use it as a normal reflector now

    I run a cool tube and they will help you out. I have a loft grow and temps are crazy at times but with the cool tube and a switchable ballast your all good

    Happy growing
