Anything trhat directly links a fan to a frame will hear harmonic vibrations compared to bungees. Another option is tyre inner tube? Just in case no bungees to hand They are also handy when cut in small squares to fire your staple gun into mylar / black and white and stop light leaks All part of the essential kit + gaffer tape 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slippy One Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 To be fair, this EC fan tech has been around for a while, I've seen EC desk fans around the £90 mark, but for me that's the same as 6-8 USB jobbies, which are not far off in terms of volume. If the AC fans are really, amazingly quiet and last a few years, I'll definitely look into buying a few. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goodbloke Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 It really is about longevity for me. Not stopping, smoking, and melting is also a plus. It's a decent looking unit, like all of their kit I've seen. At this price point their gear has to be worth a look. Apart from a carbon filter it's all performed well too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USB will always have the advantage of only ever using 5v. Hardly fan melting, this would struggle to give your tongue a buzz, if it were a 9v. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Notorious B.U.D Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Hopefully there will be more of the EC type circulation fans on the market soon and the prices will come down a bit as they seem a bit expensive to me for what they are, I’ve been waiting to see if someone would release an EC version of the 12” Flat air circulation fans that have the rotating grill like the one I use as imo one of those does the job on its own in a small space but they are very noisy compared to EC fans and are also the loudest part of my grow so I would like to upgrade but I’m gonna hold out for now to see what other options become available in the future. One thing I will say though is in my experience with the smaller ones that first came out (not ac infinity) is that they still eventually give up the ghost but hopefully that’s not the case with the AC infinity ones…I suppose time will tell. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Military Grade Posted November 26, 2022 Author Share Posted November 26, 2022 @Notorious B.U.D I just couldn't resist going for the AC Infinity one as I own the 69 Controller , but hopefully the price does start to go down as I'll probably buy a second one if this one lasts. @Slippy One Think i might get one of them Fire Extinguishing Balls for peace of mind. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shumroom Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 I use an AC Infinity CF, only in my veg Drobe so it doesn't have to too hard, but I've been using it for over a year now and I can't detect any smells escaping Atb 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Military Grade Posted November 27, 2022 Author Share Posted November 27, 2022 That USB fan arrived, It only don't bloody work, another USB fan to be returned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goodbloke Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 @mysticriverYes, I received it as part of a full 6" extraction kit. The filter looks like the rest of their kit, excellent quality. It had an atrocious lifespan before falling. I thought I had a leak as didn't suspect the filter, it being so new. Think it's only 38mm beds on it too. It's easy to find the specs 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shumroom Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 @mysticriver I use CarboAir 60 in my BLOOMROOM, 60mm Carbon layer as opposed to the 38mm of the AC Infinity. The extraction on the veg tent(I said drobe earlier, I meant tent) is only ever run at a max fan speed of 2 on the 6" fan, most of the time it's only on one, whereas the throughput of air on the BLOOMROOM fan/filter is much higher. Best of luck whichever you go for Atb 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
