[APD] RE: CF retrofit suggestions

["Christopher Ferrell" <ferrell_chris at hotmail_com>]

I'd probably try and fit some of the small computer fans into the hood for 
ventilation if you don't want to cut vents in the sides or top of the 
current hood.  It wouldn't take too much to get some convection currents 
going.

If you want to try the fans, you could get some smaller ones (40 or 60 mm 
fans) and put one on each side of the bulb to push the air down and out of 
the hood and by displacing the warmer air, cooler air will come into the 
hood.

Power them by an old wall-wart power supply (12V).

Chris
