Well after a few years of using my current hoods (ELD) I need to change hoods. I'm changing hoods because I am stepping up my grow and to be honest these hoods are garbage but worked ok for my old room and 600s.

But now I am changing to 1k lights and a different style room. So whats the best aircooled hoods you have used? I am looking for hoods that are as close to airtight as possible and easy to change bulbs. My old ones I had to take out screws than slide the glass out just to change a bulb. Also need to have 6inch ports...most do but my old ones were only 4".

Ca't edit my post so double post :stoned:

Thanks for the name hghflyrjd1. Those do look good. Just can't see how difficult it is to change the bulb. Do you know if the glass is hinged or if you need to remove screws and slide the glass?

I have a Radiant 6 and love it.. seals up tight! Real easy to clean the glass and change the bulb.. just twist a few screws. Its nice.

Hey Dradden,

I just recently got a new hood for my mom/veg room and I'm very happy with it.

It's a Sun System's Blockbuster. It has a hinged glass with a very sealable gasket.

BTW the Hydrofarm Radiant 6 that evertking mentioned also has a hinged glass.

OM :cool:
