Yes you can run a bare bulb, but you need to vent thru a can fan into a carbon filter. I would get at least a six inch. Cheers...

8" are great. But might be more than you need. Unless cost is no issue.

Get a 8" the girls will like it more then a 6" haha plus if need be you can get a fan controller to lower the speed or buy a fan that has a fan controller like a Isomax

Good luck

Also something I always do when rocking a 1000w is put a clip fan on the end of the shade blowing over the lamp helps a lot with heat

Aggree and ran controllers are fairly cheap.

How do you hook up a speed controller

You just plug it in and plug the fan into the controller. There is a speed dial on the controller you can turn up or down. They runabout $20 in my neck of the woods.
