I don't know your equipment, but if you plug it into your wall outlet, it's most likely AC, unless it's running through some sort of power inverter. DC power is almost exclusive to battery powered equipment (in modern electrical systems that is). Here in the US we used DC power back in the days of Thomas Edison but that came to change when Nicola tesla proved AC was more stable, and safer in home use.

But because of the laws of that no dynamics heat is the natural byproduct of energy. There fore the more energy used, the more heat is produced in the process. That's why with light systems there is always some sort of heat control whether it be passive ( like the ones with aluminum heat sinks) or active ( the ones with built in fans). This is the case with all electrical components, I only use lights for the example because they are easy to reference.

I totally get the light part. All Ac Infinity fans (most popular on market) are 48v DC. They're inverted and draw less than 50w on some models.

that makes sense being inverted to draw less wattage, and being brush-less definitely reduces friction and therefore heat. but when electricity passes through any kind of material it is met with resistance, this generates heat. The greater the resistance, the greater the heat. the more conductive the material is the less heat it generates. this is why when lightning strikes a lightning rod it goes to ground and prevents a house from catching fire. wood is less conductive than the metal lightning rod so when lightning strikes a tree it usually catches fire.

if you take two ac infinity fans of different sizes say a 4 inch and a 6 inch, the increased current passing through the wiring will generate more heat because its met with more resistance. now being made using modern technology and with quality components i'm sure they minimize this as much as reasonably possible but it cant be eliminated.
i know this is long but i hope i made this a little more understandable.

Yeah thats true not much more cost wise I suppose just be a bit freaked about lights running 24hrs when away.

Im switching back to autos for same reason as its been touch and go the last couple weeks with high rh lights out finishing up my photos but luckily enough critical jack has good resistance to moisture if it wasn't for that think i could have run into bother. Have to say enjoyed the photo grow lovely looking plant and the training part was enjoyable first time topping a plant turned out pretty good will chop in a few days

Oh this plants a beauty, job well done man!
