Hey everyone i just got my light from htg yesterday and im really wishing that i didnt cheap out on the reflector now. im growing in a closet about 3 feet deep 8'-going down to 5 1/2' tall and about 6 and a half feet wide. prior to this i was vegging under a 4' 2 lamp t5 setup i made myself using a fixture from home depot a piece of ply big pieces of circular ducting metal for a reflector and two hydrofarm 65k HO bulbs i got from a garden shop. So i had some money to get a light and i wanted both types of bulbs so i cheaped on the reflector ive got two oscillating fans going in the closet and a box fan blowing air in through a nearby window but temps on the plants are still around 90-91 degrees F. so i need to cool things down. i was thinking of converting the reflector they gave me. you know the really cheap 4 sided horizontal into a cool tube type reflector. The lights are about 24" above them i would like to lower it a little bit. so if anyones ever done anything like this before with an htg reflector let me know ive seen a few diy cooltube tutorials but usually they just start with a mogul socket im really wishing i got euro hood or something now. idk i guess the first thing i need to find is a good clear tube to fit a 400w. +rep for help thanks RIU![Mr. Green :mrgreen: :mrgreen:](/styles/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif)
