My buddy has a small area set up and cannot stabilize the temp. The ambiant room temp. is at a steady 82, HOWEVER the 'canopy' temp is almost at 90, with the lights at 24 inches away.
It is our understanding that 75-80 degrees is ideal but nobody ever says whether thats room temp or canopy temp.
He is running air cooled lights on a 424 CFM fan. Air is coming from outside the room (60-70degrees) and is being pulled across the lights and being exhausted back out of the room. He is also running a box fan blowing at the canopy.
Can anyone tell us what the problem is and if there is one?
Is the thermometer inaccurate because its directly under the light?
Is it suppose to be that temp at the canopy?
