I am starting to feel uneasy answering questions in Al's thread...
I hope he doesn't get mad at me...

Is that a 4 inch hooked to a 6 inch tube?
Yup 6" cool tube with an adapter to the 4" duct...

With a 170 CFM fan, I can have 600 watts 10" from my babies, without heat issues...
With the tent fully closed, high temp at "plant top" level has been 78F... and I don't even have the right exhaust fan in yet.... 265 CFM will replace the 80CFM exhaust in a few days...
Return of the Spork said:
And do you prefer the solid ducting over the more flexible kind?
It is not solid, it is semi-rigid... it still stretches and bends like the "foil" type ducting... just not quite like a slinky...lol...
I chose it because it will hold it's shape, as opposed to drooping between support points..

Id imagine it would have a lower coefficient of resistance but I was worried it wouldn't fit well when the light got raised in my setup.
Don't know your set up, but if you can use the thin foil/spring type ducting, you can use this stuff... takes no more room... maybe a slightly bigger 180 deggree turn radius... but no diff. on 90* turns...
Hope this helps...

Ps. I hope you guys know that I am just a newb... asking me questions is a very tricky thing... as I don't know very much about anything at all... so... uh ... Al.. set them straight, will ya.... lol....
Sorry Al.... no disrespect intended... you can have your thread back...lol....
