I am currently using ducting that runs outside and a centrifugal fan as well as an average sized oscillating fan and I still can't run the HPS without it way overheating the room; there's no way a cheap bathroom exhaust and 15$ fan would be enough.
What's a centrifugal fan? You can build a closed air reflector with same parts adding some material for a frame and glass..

600watts is pretty hot... but where there's a will there's a way! you gotta have a little MacGyver in you to grow on a budget! I personally wouldn't be able to let an HPS light sit unused, but I completely understand the need to not spend anymore money.

The LED will be fine... you'll grow nice buds, you wont know what you're missing anyway. Keep the 600 watt HPS... if you keep growing, you'll find a way to make it work next grow or two.

Don't trust anything grow shop people say, don't ever listen to their recommendations. Do your own thing don't let them mess your garden up with their greed.
Stupid thing is that he wasn't the greedy type, he coulda made a lot more money off me than he did but he was trying to get me to spend as little as possible but to a stupid extent like recommending against PH testing the soil and not recommending a closed hood.
