    nice comparison, I love my ac infinity 6" and it uses much less power and way quieter than my old metal case vivosun's though they have been running for years and still work thanks cheers! 👍💨🔨

    Once I saw that Vivosun & Mars Hydro had copied AC Infinity's fans, but were selling them for less money, I knew they were cutting corners somewhere. Since I run my fans 24/7, I can't afford to be cutting corners, just to save a few bucks. I'm sticking with AC Infinity.

Then there is the T6 app which is just awesome/ Being able to look at the history data and dial in is so easy. It also save my ass, when the timer switch failed to turn my lights on. I could see the temp hadn't dropped so went and checked.

    Great comparison video. Like you, I couldn't live with a short power cord like those on the MARS HYDRO and VIVOSUN units. I'd immediately have to head to Lowe's or Home Depot and buy the parts to make a longer cord and replace the factory power cord. FYI - I'm using the ventilation fans in the design of an air filtration system for laser cutter/engraver machines, so some of the features in the controls are of no use to me.

    Haven't even started my 1st grow but alot of youtubers say infinity. Looking at it, it appears better built. I've seen some light testing vids where Mars had fudged the numbers (efficiency) which makes me wonder what each fan pulls load wise. So far I'm going with infinity, optic led , and the tent....well, I see mixed reviews on gorilla, ac, Mars, vivosun or they don't offer a taller 2x2 . Originally trying to go budget, I'm lost as far as tests go. A zip around door is a must for working . Love your vids man and the fact you do 2x2 grows really is awesome!

    What your calling a quick connect is not a quick connect but a device called a cable gland, cord grip, or strain relief. They are commonly used in industrial wiring applications such as factory automation or electrical controls. Sometimes you see them used in higher end electrical products as well. The basic idea is that whenever wiring or cabling is run through a hole (usually some type of metal enclosure), the enclosure material tends to scrape away or damage the wire insulation over time. It is also a point of high mechanical strain such as shear that lead to common points of failure. The glands protect the wire/ cable and some also seal the wholes from the elements.

    I Have heard that these pick up interference ie the temperature/humidity speed controller stops working when using HPS lights. To set the record straight I ended up purchasing two of the AC Infinity fans S8 & S6 and two controllers 67 & the 69 I was torn between them and the Hyper fan but these swayed the scale as it has a lot more features. I am running a Lumatek Digital HPS and no issues, I have built a led 20 cob bar light which I will use when it gets real hot but no issues with them so far maybe it might be the case the first ones had issues and they resolved it ie (updated components) .... Three thumbs up for them like Rick James 👍👍👍

The noise level… to be honest from my own research I think the amount of noise the motor makes is irrelevant compared to the actual sound of the air being pushed through! So if you get a bigger fan and run it on a slower speed that’s the only way to get it quieter

    As a user of T4 Mars hydro fan and ACI T6 Fan. I can honestly say, anybody who says ACI unit is super quiet and can't be heard, hasn't really had to use it much lol. My MH unit no comparison is way better in regards to sound or hearing the fan run. Once speed on ACI hits 5 or higher its loud af in comparison... I do like ACI cord lengths better and the app/controllers. They do carry good products but you don't have to break the bank and buy everything ACI. It's a popular brand simply bc most all relevant content creators are sponsored by them and push their influence accordingly. They get alot of free gear to push their product.

    That 5 degrees difference is a bummer. You would maybe expect them to be off by 1-2 degrees, compared to each other, but this .... Obviously some natural acid from your fingers, and also temperature difference, can change the metal surface of the probe/sensor, but it would not make that much of a difference. There might be something wrong with the materials or components used in that probe. Or they are reading out the values wrongly in the controller. About the performance you measured from the fans: I have not looked into Vivosun's technical information about their fan, but Mars Hydro for example is not disclosing if their fans have an EC-Motor/Engine. Why is that important ? Well, EC-Motors are up to 50 % more efficient than regular motors. Notice that i say "up to", because most of the time its more like 25-30 %. EC-Motors pulse the power/energy, because you dont need it to be consumed to 100 % for one full rotation of the blades. When you see a price difference of say 30 % between fans, then a lot of the time its the EC vs Non-EC situation. You can observe that with cheap oscillation clip-fans. Thanks for making that test, even if it is not an indepth tear down. Peace bro ✌
