Ive got an attic space that im looking to upgrade with a 4ft 4 bulb t5 fixture. Heat is always a concern. Clones have done fine with a 4ft 2 bulb shoplight. The idea is to clone, then veg 24 clones under this thing for a few weeks max.
The added heat worries me. How much heat do these things really give off?
I see there is a choice of fixtures as far as the ballast being mounted on top or the side. Will one run cooler than the other?
Height is also a concern. After mounting, there will be a little over 2 ft from the light to the floor. Take away 10 or so inches for the containers and growth and whats left is a a foot of light playroom. Here my concern is both heat and by default, light intensity. Is this light right for the space? Any input would be great.
