hello. i have a closet 4' x 8' . i have an inline power ventor pulling fresh air in, and a power ventor pulling hot air out, and i got 2 oscilating fans, one pointing at my babies and one pointing at my 600w hps bulb. the problem is i have all of this shit and i cant get the temperature below 30.C
WTF?

where is you thermometer? if it's sitting in direct light, that is why. the temp is not really that high, the wind just isn't taken into consideration. If you have the thermometer somewhere that is not in direct light, I'm not sure what you can do, maybe go to a 400W light instead.

have the same problem. i don't use a fan for intake though - and i air-cool my lights and STILL had the same problem.
Final resolution: putting in an AC unit.

what kind of exaust fan do you have? where is the fresh air fan pulling the air from? you may have to up both of those to 6'' or 8''.on the exaust are you pulling air from the top or bottom of the room? where you place everything has a role in good circulation and making sure your pulling the hot air out and leaving the cooler air in.
