I do not want to drill more holes in the wall and buy more fans to vent my lights separately. I honestly don't really have a temp problem due to light, the digilux's seem to put out much less heat compared to other bulbs I've had. My question is basically my title, will using a 6" clip fan connected to the reflector to cool the lights harm my bulb and/or reflector/socket? By this I of course mean the vibrations of the fan, can it harm anything?
I use the hated yoyo hangers, they've been nothing but great for me. When I clip the fan to the edge of the reflector it holds solid, the blade center with the fan cover removed is a good inch inch and a half from the bulb and it doesn't weigh the reflector down on one side. My only concern is the vibrations. Being I need the fan right on the light, and throughout the grow it will need to be moved up, I find this much more convenient than pounding hangers in my wall every 4-6" to properly clip the fan in place. Any suggestions other than clipping fan to reflector are welcome to.
