So I bought I HLG LED light under the assumption it was the best bang for the buck. I didn't use a heat sink thinking it would not need one by mulitole posts I have read. I am now having heat issues in my 4x4. The last grow I did I thought it might have been the strain. But I bought another one. I'm having even more heat issues. I have 4 plants and I'm beginning to question whether I made the right decision. My VIPAR 600 runs the same amount of electricity but it produces way less heat.
I feel like I was misled a quite a bit. Would a heat sink have helped much? I don't have the ability to duct outside because of stealth issues. My driver is now gorilla glued to the LED. What should I do. I'm about ready to buy a portable AC but the one I prolly need is 400 bucks. I feel like a bettering resolution would be to dump the 2 HLGs for a couple more ViPARs.
I'm getting 80-82 degree temps. This is unacceptable during flower. Suggestions welcomed
