They are less expensive to run than the other types of space heaters (they are more efficient). But it is kind of a waste or “counter productive” to have to run a heat source that adds no other benefit, when running leds… but it can be practically necessary.
I live in canada. There’s about eight or nine months of winter.
@BerryHigh I also agree with the suggestions of HID, specifically cmh - for the nice spectrum. Though, I duno how much heat it might actually add.
Your max lights on temps are 72-74F? The plants are probably 70F or colder then…
If you need an affordable, basic way to add humidity to a tent, houseofhydro has ultrasonic/atomizer foggers that do a good job. But if you’re gonna be exchanging air with the whole basement, it’s gonna be hard to keep conditions in the tent much different than the basement, right?
That’s neat. Good one.
