Old Mars Grow blurples getting hot

Hi guys, I hope everyone is doing well. Just a quick question.

My setup consists of a couple 2x4 tents. I am upgrading to a SF2000 for my main tent, but I'd like to continue using my blurple LEDs for the other tents. The problem is that they get too hot. Two units in one tent will push the temps up to 100F with my exhaust fan on high. One unit doesn't have enough coverage for the tent size. I'm wondering if I replaces the drivers and/or fans if I could get the temps down? My old exhaust fan could keep the tent cool, but it was huge and noisy AF!

edit: they are basically this model:

Can you run longer wire for the drivers and put them in the outside of the tent

I would definitely need to modify the assembly somehow if I did that. If I did that, I'd probably mount the LEDs to an aluminum sheet or something. There is a metal chassis around it. I have 2 of these:

Place a fan on the floor pointing at the lights where it can push the radiating heat towards the exhaust. Best I got unless you install an AC in the room & open up passive intake.

That light is probably gonna sell for 40 bucks on that link. Old tech & inefficient. Try and get some funds together for a new light, or enter a contest here. Most are easy to enter. (That’s if you don’t already have a budget set for one)
