I just recently picked up AC infinity controllers and that has made me pay attention to the environmental conditions of my tent grow much closer. Previously I just set my exhaust fan at a medium speed and ran it, day and night.
It seems having these conditions on my phone anytime I want them (while home anyway) has given me some heartburn.
4x4x8 tent, 6" exhaust, FC6500 w/ the LED driver outside the tent. 2 6" circ fans.
I'm lucky as the lung room is pretty steady, about 74degrees. I'm still working out the humidity as that does change seasonally and recently it has taken a dive but its coming back up mechanically but the past tells me It won't help overall.
What gets me is the relationship between heat, humidity and fan speed in the tent.
I've been playing with various setpoints, ramp speeds, room exhausts, ect. And really the end result is the same. High temp & low humidity or low temp & high humidity
Perhaps I'm just coming to the conclusion that tents serve a purpose but aren't really all that great due to the environmental extents.
what are others doing? what are your conditions like? Achieve nirvana yet?

- lights on increases heat which ramp up the exhaust fans thus reducing humidity.
- lights off increases humidity which ramp up the exhaust fans thus lowering temps
