I have the non oscillating ones by ac infinity and they’re the quietest clip on fan I’ve ever had

I figured being a dealer they wouldn’t sell everything to everyone leaving me to not have any, didn’t see the two thing either lol.

I’ve been going through so much heartache trying to get these fans! Two months later, still don’t have them and bought a pair of the non-oscillating ones by mistake. Maybe I’ll be able to buy them next month

Honestly, my major gripe with them is how many they sent out to “influencers” before they were even close to being in stock. Most of those “influencers” set them up, took pics, then threw them in the corner with all the other free shit companies throw at them just because they have a large follower count. So there’s still no long term real grower reviews, from what I’ve seen anyway. I bought them because every sub-12” oscillating fan I’ve put in my tents has failed inside of a year and I want to see if these are any better. At $50 each, they better be….

I agree. They say that the non oscillating ones can’t be on more than 18hrs per day day. Imagine the oscillating ones will be the same. Air circulation in a grow tent should be 24/7 and that’s what I’m doing with the non oscillating ones. We’ll see how long those last. I wrote down the date of when I put them in the tent lol

18 hours total or 18 hours straight? Guess we’ll see what happens.

i think it’s 18 hours straight. i had not actually seen this in the manual before. actually who am i kidding, i didn’t read the manual. but it does show that it recommends 18 on/6 off in order to maximize the lifespan of the fan.
i’ve been running it constantly but at level 4 for 18 and then level 2 for 6 hours. i suppose i’ll switch it to be off during those 6 now.

Makes sense for longevity in the motor. Cool downs for the magneto are needed, I have two in the tent that work one after the other in 30 mins intervals. But that only became integrated with the new controller 69 I use.
I also took note from eskobars and ifish mapito thread (super interesting stuff and an absolute amazing amount of knowledge hidden in those threads lol). And now have a CLOUDLINE t4 feeding into the tent at 7 and the extruder set for the humidity and temp control.
The inducing fan feeds from the bottom. The two fans spin the air inside. And the extruder sips as needed, I am also thinking of adding in their HVAC 4" or 6 " shutter fans into the extra port holes in the tent, to allow for even more air circulation. Lol. But that’s a long way away for me.
Hey @Enjoi802 I’ve had the same 6 inch vivosun carbon filter for like 3 years or so now and it’s finally taking a shit, bearings or whatevers inside where the impeller is are going bad and it overheats and audibly vibrates and shit so it’s really on its way out and I’m in the market for a new one.
I grow in a idk 100-144 SQ ft room and use the carbon filter as a whole room filter exhausting into my veg tent to cool the lights in it.
I saw you had different variations of the 4 inch line, would one of those be sufficient for a room that big? Seems like I’d need to go 6 or 8, carbon filter is more for the wife than any kind of circulation, cause she doesn’t smoke or care for the smell. I have a box fan and good size oscillating fan for circulation, so it’d really be more for filtering the smell.
Also random side note, my wife bought a floor vent fan off Amazon and I was setting it up, it’s an AC Infinity electric floor vent booster that senses a set high and low temp and boosts when it reaches it, that company is sweet as fuck

@TestOfOath the 6 inch would suffice if it has been for 3 years. Seems like that’s a decent amount of time with a exhaust fan. Especially if it’s always running.
We do have the bundles on the site of the fan and filter combo, the exhaust fans are usually setup around the duct port sizes on a tent or light, as to not have to use reducers, which will speed up failures.
So if the port sizes make sense to go 8" then that would allow for a greater amount of area being moved.
The 4" is imo maybe good up to a 3x3 space. Maybe 4x4 if you got the right room around it, but as the size goes up the amount of air being moved is reduced greatly. Inline booster can also solve that issue if the fan isn’t enough for a given space.

I’m in need of a fan and intake filter sometime soon. I’ll be glad to go through you. I had already been looking at the AC Infinity and just gotta get my finances back in order. I only just saw this thread today. peace

They have new tents coming out?
They made a few new sizes that they didn’t carry, and now have the advance grow tent systems. Nothing out of this world. But still a good thing. They are making big tents now also.

Well I guess I’ll do a 17% off and open up pre orders on the fan. Give me until tomorrow and I’ll get the code up on here and the fans on my website !
Well the code is going to be OG17 at checkout
Just gonna say. If you buy one through them. With the code @unomas may just supplied it will be cheaper. Growcast15 on the ac infinity site.

Sorry for being so late in replying, I been working 11-12 hour days on top of my 2 hour drive with only Sundays off for 3 weeks now, it’s fucking exhausting. Pun intended.
Just went and checked Amazon orders cause I couldn’t remember and turns out I have an 8 in and not a 6 anywho, thought it looked larger but didn’t feel like grabbing a tape measure and was apparently too high to check Amazon the first time. What you got for me in the way of only the cloud line t8 or similar functioning product?
Side question, what’s the average life span of a carbon filter? Do they deplete or fill up with shit over time? Can I keep this one or should I just get new everything? I always have a prefilter on it and try to keep the prefilter pretty clean but I also smoke down in my grow room and it clogs the prefilter every couple months and needs washing.
Anywho my paycheck was big and dumb cause of it and I’ve got enough to order so let’s run it while I’m able 
so does that mean you can do the T8s as well, even if they weren’t specifically on your site yet?

Hey bud don’t mean to be rude or press or anything but did you see that last post? I got a new teenage babysitter starting soon and I don’t want to fuck things up with her parents with my house wreaking, I got 25+ one gallons flowering in my seed run and the Vivosun finally completely seized up.
I need a cloud line t8 or something on par with it, thanks for your help and the consultation, I appreciate it

No worries that’s my miss, but yes I can definitely get a CLOUDLINE t8 and filter. Just need to know if you would rather it with the smart controller or not.

How much for a t6 with the smart controller.
The go for 159 plus shipping. Now please I would like to note that it is the older controllers that come with the units. So it would be the controller 67 that comes with any t series ventilation fan.

I suppose the controller wouldn’t hurt, I’m not so worried about the generation of it but what’s the difference between the older and newer?
Let me know how to go about ordering and I’ll get on it
