Set up is 600w HPS set up from HTG. How could I vent and exhaust the 4 sided batwing reflector that came with it? I was thinking maybe an 6 inch inline fan to some ducting but where should I place the other end of the ducting since the batwing reflector has no hole made for ducting? Should I just place the open end somewhere near the bulb to cool it off? Also for exhaust what would be the best method? Run more ducting from the other end of the light to somewhere else in the house. Growroom is in a closet lol. Maybe just get an Ionic Pro Turbo air purifier?

This closet also has the access door to my attic. I usually keep my house pretty cold too. Temp is normally around 58-63 degrees F in the area. The room that the closet is in also has a window to outside and a ceiling fan. I have a 10 inch oscillating fan that I could put in the closet already.

That is why they make air coolable hoods. If you don't want to buy one try to have your exhaust pulling the air from around your bulb and blow a fan between the bulb and plants.

How could I make the exhaust?
well my recomendation is to get an air cooled hood...

by the time you get done messing around and mcgyvering something up on that batwing reflecter your going to have numerous headaches and almost the same amount of money invested anyway... buy an air cooled reflector from htg ... they are only about 3-4 hours away from me and their prices are awesome...

do it... go .... go buy one... go get go hahaha go
