Hey everyone just got my 400w aircooled hood and i have some spare 4" plastic ducting from my air conditioning. I was wondering if i can use the plastic ducting to air cool the light or will it melt/start a fire. thanks

i use alum. 6'' ducting like dryer ducting but 6'' dryer duct is 4''
u can get it at home depot fairly cheap
im guessing your hookups off hood are 4''?
