Hi,
I have a 600w HPS in a tent of 1.2 x 1.2m and do not have any cooling problems. I have a 150mm Black Orchid centri-flow extractor fan running very slowly, and I have a Lumatek parabolic reflector with a Sunmaster dual spectrum lamp. I set the digital ballast to 400W for veg with a clearance height above the canopy of around 300mm, and 600W with a height of 350-400mm for flower. My temperatures in the tent remain below 25C, in fact I have had to install heat mats to keep the temperatures above 20C.
Hope this helps to answer some of your questions.
There is no sound from my Lumatek digital ballast. It does get a bit hot though.
Cheers man, I was hoping to get led and hps in but no way I'll do it in the tent I'm in, its 80x80, got a 100x100 but even in there I think I'd struggle

I've got 2 autos, 8wks old. For a while they were under 150w IS led and 250w dual spec hps, then took the hps out and for at least a few wks been under the LED alone. They're late in flower I'd say, I think 2-3 wks before chop. Got a second hps ballast today so wondering if I put a 250w dual spec back in with the LED now is there a high chance of giving myself a headache? Or do ya think it will just be a positive for the last few wks?

Yeh thats it mate, it's pretty easy going, water/feed every 2/3 days, bit of defol to get the light in. I ask myself, Is it gonna be worth adding an extra light and hoping it balances out without too much tinkering for the extra yield I'm not sure I'll get lol? I am fond of the saying if it aint broke don't fix it...I also really like weed
If I can keep the temp/humidity stable and I'm willing to be more flexible with the water/feed, then it would be worth adding the light? I understand it's my choice, plenty of time to mess about atm. I also wasn't sure if it would cause too much stress at a crucial stage
