    Default Fan and filter review please guys

    Okay debating on getting the 6inch ram for £50
    And a fox carbon filter £40
    Budget is tight this time of year but they're needed, has anyone used any of these
    Just basics, is the filter effective and the fan relatively quiet? Also can you ram filter be ran with a controller? Any help appreciated Thanks again guys

    I've used both.

    Not that large, but the 100mm Ram fan comes highly recommended from me, mate.

    An absolute powerhouse for extraction. Never been anything less than perfect after about 3 years. Definitely needs a speed controller of some sort fitted as full whack will suck you off from 17ft away.

    The Fox filters...not so much. They're OK, but I think you can do better. Again, I have a 100mm version in my drying tent (Oooo...'ark at him) and was totally confident of that, but not when I was using it in an active grow - can't help with the reasons why but that's what I think, anyway.

    In short:

    Ram fan - 5 stars out of 5 - sex toy. Would buy again.

    Fox filter - 3 stars out of 5 - wouldn't use if growing next to a Rozzer.

    I had a 6” rvk and that was soooo loud, had to downsize to a 5”, can’t go wrong with a good rvk though, can’t comment on the ram never owned one, you need a decent filter though that’s a must, I always try to get a decent filter that’s a bit overkill for my tent size, it’s less restriction on the fan and safety first in this game so win win for me
