400w lighting came in today. I have it mounted on the left side of the room. My seedlings are on the right under a T5 FLoro. I tested both bulbs prior to install and both worked great. Problem I found that I will need to address though. I ran the light for an hour in the lab with no fan. The room stayed a comfortable 75 degrees but 1 and a half feet under the light spiked to 100 degrees. I'm hoping a couple 12" fans can drop the temp enough for my plants to be comfortable under it. I'm thinking 1 fan directed at the light itself and another blowing through foliage. It's my only option at this point as I've sunk the rest of my money into a 4" inline with a carbon filter. My paranoia got the best of me and I went ahead and ordered the scrubber. $120 vs 1-5 years. I'll pay the $120
