Hi All, MERRY CHRISTMAS!! Well the temp in my tent never gets above 71, tent is downstairs where the temp in the house is lower (about 4-5 degrees) I keep the house at 70 when home and 64 at night and when away, my therms memory shows that the lowest temp so far was 61.4 and the highest temp was 78 (one day when the filter fan didn't kick on) but normally the temp is right around 70 give or take a degree! example right now the temp in the tent is 70.4 and outside the tent it's 65.8! I'm running a 600 watt hps (air cooled) and 1 4' t-5 in each corner of the tent.

Now here's my question, I would like the temp in the tent to run around 73-75 when lights are on, the night time temps aren't a worry. When the filter-fan (filter is inside tent) is not running the temp in the tent goes up dramatically! but then moister in the tent becomes an issue!!

I went to my local supply store and they sold me a "speed controller" which I was told would work but when it's set on the lowest setting it wont kick on when the timer turns on my system! I have to actually turn the knob on the controller to kick the can-fan on? I asked the supply store and was told that it (the controller) has to have a certain amount of amps or something to kick on the can-fan?? and told me not to set it at the low setting but more like half way! but at that setting it doesn't allow enough heat to build up inside the tent! any suggestions? thank you.
