my cab is 16 cubic feet with an ENclosed ballast light a 55 cfm for intake and a 55 cfm of exhaust.. and it still runs hot.. i should get my remote ballast light to day do you think that might help with the heat?

i just read somewhere that someone would freeze a couple 2 liter coke bottles and put them in there.
drops about 5 degrees.

Remote the ballast outside the cabinet and get a decent fan and you'll get temps under control

I wonder how much frozen coke bottles would do. If they do lots I will freeze alot and just keep them around my room because it gets so hot from having 8 42w CFLs in my closet.
