Hey!
My outdoor thermometer is hovering just above zero but I'm thinking forward to the long, hot summer and wondering if I should go air cooled.
At the moment I have 5 600 watt mantis reflectors with heat shields and I love 'em but temps can get way too high in there on hot summer nights.
I've seen those air tubes but they don't look much to me. What are the best air cooled reflectors, in your opinions? Can I string five of them together?
Presumably there needs to be plenty of slack in the duct connecting the lights but does that all get very noisy with the air going around all those bends?
If I intake air to the fans from outside the room, I wont have to filter it before expelling it, right?
Anything else you think I should consider before going air cooled, please chip in.
