Have you ever sat in a completely dark room with your tents lights on? The vents may be light proof but the seems are definitely not.

So I purchased a 2 x 4 lighthouse tent off of Ebay for 99$, same ones you can find here http://www.lighthousehydro.com/ (not to be confused with hydrofarms lighthouse line)

The tent was holding a hydrofarm 8 bulb 4' T5 light fixture which according to their website weighs 28 lbs. A totally acceptable weight. http://www.hydrofarm.com/pb_detail.php?itemid=10653
The bracket that connected the roof bars broke. :fire:Sending my light right into my canape. Luckily I was home at the time and heard the noise of it crashing into my babies. I am now fearful that other people may have the same issue and god forbid they have a HID fall down and start a fire. These tents are poorly built and if you are using one please reinforce your roof brackets with duct tape or something.

good save man. I have a SECRET JARDIN and the thing is sturdy as shit, i literally sat on top of it (200 lbs) to secure my fan to the ceiling and nothing broke (thank god, was a dumbshit thing to do). So i highly recommend this brand if anyone is looking for a tent. I did have to do some light proofing of the vents but thats to be expected of any tent IMHO.
