Please recommend inside ventilation

Hey guys, extractor/ intake is all good but inside my tent I just have one osculating fan and even that is on the floor so barely doing anything to my now huge plants and I need to make sure I don't get bud rot

I've been looking at clip on fans but seeing all bad reviews

Secret jardin monkey fan (only lasted 4 weeks) (almost burnt the place down)

Ram clip on fan (extremely noisy)

Can anyone debunk these rumors or point me in the right direction to something more suitable??

Walmart has cheap fans, return em if they fail easy as can be. I'm personally using a standing oscillating fan in my tent but it's a fairly big tent. Most people use clip fans

200mm PC fans with +1000rpm usually have +115ft³/min air flow with sufficient pressure. They are pretty quiet compared to these 15w fans and usually keep around 50,000h. I have two 6,5w 12v fans in my 4" 2' area.

You could screw a clamp of one of the defective fans on it or simply hang it up. The clamps have a 25mm wide connection and the PC fans too you need only a 15mm small piece of wood with 2 screw holes to connect them.
I had it that way before but now they are just hanging in the corners. Let me see if I still have the pictures. But if not, if you have both in front of you you understand how I mean it..

No old pics but thats the connections I'm talking about.
As you can see you only need a small piece of wood that fits between the 15 mm wide gaps. That would act like joint and allows you to insert the fan in any position you need.

I think I've also heard of people fixing these to the branches to provide airflow in hard to reach areas.

I've never used them myself, but loads of people love em.

Yup! I can only confirm this.. The two 6,5w fans are quieter and make more wind like a 15w clip fan. But they are more expensive in most cases because you will need more. Noctua's for instance are bad ass fans but 45$ per fan is laughable costly. CoolerMaster has a good 200mm one for ~20$, my Enermax fans have an additional switch for 600, 900 and 1200rpm and costs about 15 bucks.
