Alright gents,

Still in the planning / preparation and education stage at the minute, so need a little advice.

Tent size will be a 120x60x180, so logic dictates a 4" fan. However I'm thinking of running a 6" fan, which I hopefully can keep at a lower speed (for noise) and better filtration.

So, what would be the pro's and cons of choosing a 4" over a 6" ?

Thanks

Smile

I am growing in same tent size and use a 6 inch fan, it more or less always just sits on setting 2 of 1-8.

If you have the extra money it cost then I would recommend a 6 inch AC Infinity with Humidity and Temperature Controller box

@jsh1973

AC infinity is the plan (you get what you pay for) but heard the series 67 control pad is due out here soon. So was advised by the guy at vividled to wait till it's out (apparently the old controller is pants) 🤷‍♂️

I'm guessing you have an infinity, how you finding it?

If you live in a cold place and think you’ll have to heat Your tent I’d go 4. If you think you’ll need more cooling than heating I’d go 6

 

i have the same tent and live in a cold place, I went for a 6 and regret it, soon as fan comes on sucks all heat humidity out of the tent

@rufio

Can't the fan speed be adjusted accordingly?

@matthew-elton even lowered to the min it’s still destroying my humidity, growing in a garage in the middle of winter so keeping check on everything is a challenge.

 

if your somewhere hot you should be sweet and the AC seem to be the job with the controllers
