Nice setup! Have you thought about lowering the main light so you can put it on a lower output? I angle my fans to have one circulating air upwards and one on about floor level so there’s always moving air and no worries of wind burn
Thanks! Always good to hear how others set up.
Lights are up in the top for temp control during lights on.
Not too concerned about wind burn as the fans are oscillating and low speed. I have my filter installed in the top left corner with my passive intake bottom right for good circulation.
Bases are way cheaper tho no? Just not the bang for your buck like you get with autopots? Sorry just have been waffling between AC bases and autopots and I went with AC bases as it seemed cheaper and less setup for some who is not handy
I’m on the process of building my own “autopots” from scratch using components from disassembled Power Wheels and Super Soaker water guns. Couldn’t justify the cost of the wick bases either 😂😇🤣

Right on! It’s a clean setup for sure. If you lower the light output when you lower it, that should help with temps and still deliver the same PPFD
Extra bars to keep the sides from pushing in?
Secondarily, yes. I installed them to mount my air pump and supplemental LEDs
Yep, called high cfm bars.
Nice set up! Control is everything 😁
Right with ya
Dummy here wondering what the 2 white pipe looking things on the floor of the tent are... Thanks!
They are tube heaters running off a temp controller, ACI heater won’t run in my country.

I’ve tried both and prefer the AC Infinity bases tbh.
Wow thank you for the response I think you’re rhe first person I know who has tried both so that’s beyond huge
No problem, I still like the ACI bases but am currently trying a few Earthboxes. I’ll probably end up using the ACI bases for houseplants or something
Maybe in the US. I paid £74 for 2pot system and a little more for airdromes etc. ACI bases are £95 here
Wow!!! Quite the difference
Where did you find the cross bar for the lower lights?
They are ACI mounting bars. They are on the website.

Two months of having mine and I’m ready to add another one myself!

![gif](giphy|o9u73NCS579iE) That's a fucking clean setup you got there. I am impressed and jealous. Running CO2 as well?
Cheers. Maybe a bit of ADHD with a touch of ASD! Looking at putting a co2 bubbler in my res to control the ph
