    Default Hey, help needed

    Hey all, new to this, only my 2nd grow. It's coming up to summer months and I'm having a little trouble cooling my 2.4x1.2x2m tent with 6" silverstar air cooled reflectors with 2x 600w bulbs.

    Ryt now I have a TT inline fan sucking out 552 m3/hr out of the tent and away externally, the duct run on this is quite long however, and it also has 2 big reflectors to suck through.

    My idea was to put another identical fan blowing into the light, so I would hav one before the lights and one after the lights.
    Common sense says the air flow will be amplified by having both fans within the long duct run. However, would it maybe a be a better idea to create another exhaust for the 2nd fan and get another filter?
    Or would pulling cool air from out the tent and over the lights then exhaust, and having a 2nd fan to exhaust tent heat, be a better idea?

    Thoughts and experience would be highly appreciated, thanks

    From what I've done and heard, its almost impossible to cool adequately in summer, with lights, with only exhaust, your gonna have to buy an AC unit.
    I wish I was this cool.
