Again, I have no proof of this so perhaps someone with more knowledge will chime in. Anyways, as for how close together the bulbs are I do not have a definitive answer, but I would think as long as proper ventilation were present so as to prevent overheating, it should be fine.

After receiving it and being able to physically hold it and mess around with it, I realized I had been over thinking and since then have made my own. I ended up purchasing a prefabbed cool tube as everytime I would start designing my own, I would second guess the design, not sure if it would be up to par with a prefabbed one or not.
GROW LIGHT REFLECTOR HOOD HOW TO
A few years ago when I was ready to purchase an air cooled reflector of some type I first began planning how to make my own. I prefer making as much of my own equipment as possible, just something I enjoy doing.

How's it going? Hopefully this will help with a few of your questions. I'm just getting inventor's blockĪnyone else have any ideas on how to modify this mailbox rig to handle 2 lights and a fan?. I have been brainstorming about this all day. I have a couple extra PC case fans laying around. I also want to try to make this thing air cooled. IS THIS SAFE?Ĭan I put HPS and MH bulbs that close together without explosions or other adverse side effects?. I want to modify the plan in this article to fit TWO lights. Does Chrome spray paint have good reflectivity regarding the proper light wavelengths, UV, and IR radiation reflect-ability? Or should i line the inside of the hood with Tin Foil? lol. It shows how to build a Reflector out of a Mailbox. Found Lots of prefab ones for $100's of dollars. So i was looking for a nice HPS Light kit.
