why cant I get my temp down below 85??? im running a 400 watt mh air cooled hood with a 400 cfm inline fan in a 3x3x6 tent...ambient room temp is 70 72 max I vent to the outside so what could the problem be?

ide buy a big fan heavy duty place it on the out side of the wall blow it into the room and on the outher side cut a vent so you have a cross breeze, this will work great for small lights like yours , people with a lot more have a dedicated ac machine in the grow room, but not for your small set up

wish I was ive been trying to figure it out for the past 3 days dosent make sense to me considering my ambient temps are cool
maybe some pics..............8 in fan w a 400 your tent should be like one degree higher than the room its in.......

im starting to think soo idk what going on but it has droped to 82 but still not where I would like it
Check your incoming air temps, a 600W lamp vented out of the room should raise your temps about 6 degrees.
