My question is in regard to heat generated with a 600 light bulb used in conjunction with the medium Adjust-A-Wings and Super-Spreader in a grow tent (enclosed space). Normally, in such an enclosed space, heat dissipation is better achieved with the use of an air cooled reflector . Since the Adjust-A-Wings and Super-Spreader are not air cooled, are they suitable for use in a grow tent? I was thinking about renewing the air inside the tent through the use of a 400 cfm inline fan.
Renewed air will enter the grow tent at room temperature (70-75), no AC available.
Can I use an Adjust-A-Wings and Super-Spreader with a 600 HPS light bulb without running into overheating issues?
I have a friend who loves the adjust-a-wing reflectors. He adapted the reflector to fit on a cool-tube, so he could use them in a tent.

I think you *need* an AC reflector, particularly, with intake temps hovering in the mid 70s. You are going to have to move a *lot* of air to keep the environment below 80. I'd be more comfortable if ambient room temps topped out at 70.

Hmmm,...That's a good sized tent.
C'mon,... 1000 watt Cool-Tube,.....and don't look back.

Just my thoughts, good luck! :thumbsup:
