I have a 3x3x6.5 grow tint. Econo wing reflector with 400 watt hps. I plan on adding a intake and exhaust with filter but I'm havin issues deciding if I should go with a 2ft 8 lamp T5. Only reason I'm considering is cause of the heat issues. Would it b worth goin with the T5s cause I can place them closer to my plants or is it not worth loosing all the lumens compared to the HPS
