His tent is 90x90x160cm, with a 700w light, coverage of 3.5'x3.5' actually should not be a problem, we have other customers also use this lights in the same size but the temperature is not a problem. I guess it might due to the ineffiicient air circulation. Pray :peace:
It occurs to me that if his tent is only 160cm tall it's quite likely it's no wider than 90cm.

The panel is 39cm x 38cm and hung around 140cm high. Tbh unless I'm way wrong about the tent size he's running too big a panel in both physical and power terms.

Only having roughly 25 cm clearance on each side might sound ok but once the sides of the tent are sucked in by the negative pressure it's quite a bit less.

Adding the space taken up by the carbon filter and fan leads me to think the panel is suffering from having to recirculate it's own hot air which might still be ok if it was getting cool fresh air from outside. Since it isn't getting it the effect of the tent getting hot anyway with such a large panel and the air in the room itself getting hot will only continue to compound the problem so somehow he needs to take heat from some part of the whole dynamic. A fresh air intake from outside or venting the hot air outside should solve it but if not a smaller light might be best!
