Rhubarb & Flustered Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 With you, I've not got that problem as the light is so compact. Like I said, it's only a small gripe & nowt curtain wire couldn't fix. Love their fans, don't think I've had the extraction above 4 (on 3 atm) but that'll change with Summer coming up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Villan Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 (edited) Just had the cloudray 6 ins oscillating fan delivered, first thing I read is... it is recommended to switch of for a few hours... what the fuck ....will let it run 24/7 and demand a refund Vill mind you, I could put it on a timer and as it says in the book... let it cool down for a few hours. But don't really like the idea of no circulation for a period of time when lights are off ? Edited July 1, 2023 by The Villan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Villan Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 (edited) have read loads of threads on it, but as I say first thing I read in the manual is to switch it off. It aint a cheap item either . Edited July 1, 2023 by The Villan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abbo52 Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 I had 2 running 24/7 for 2 grows and both were rattling/rough as chuff after. I returned them and got 2 new replacements under warranty. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Military Grade Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 I have mine on cycle mode, 10 hours on 6mins off, had it a couple of grows now and it is still very silent, In my 60x60 I don't have in Oscillating until about 2 weeks into flower. It makes a little noise when you first turn the Oscillating back on when it's been off for a long time but than noise goes after a few mins. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My old ruck fan was the same, always had to wd40 it and give it a spin but it always kept going. I am sure these ac infinity will last.....hopefully Vill 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Military Grade Posted July 1, 2023 Share Posted July 1, 2023 Ah right, soz didn't know my bad They are very handy bits of kit the controllers, I got two now , just a shame the oscillating can't be controlled by the controller, I don't like having to try and press the buttons on the back while it's oscillating. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since then got these two USB oscillating fans that work very well but are not in a clip on form, so i have them on the floor under the canopy oscillating blowing upwards and spreading the tube heater warmth around. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
