This channel is going to blow up, you've got me subscribed. Ill be on the lookout for both the ac infinity cloudray s6 gen2 and the mist sprayer they have. The tent from ac infinity has the best feeling zipper imo, I'm sure you'll get around to showing a video comparing tents.

happy to have my spider farmer 6 in :)

Nice breakdown and comparison video. I appreciate it. Im running ac infinity but just basic models. They dont oscillate, but 10 speeds is nice. I'm about to order the updated models now.

I've got 6 of the spider farmer fans. They run 24/7 and have had zero issues in over 3 months. Will be replacing my Jardins when they die out. The versatility of 7 speeds and the lower wattage is awesome. Definitely worth the money. The Jardins are lucky to last past 3 months. I started with 10 I have 4 left.

@@gardensupplyguys I appreciate you breaking it down in a concise way. I have to admit I was on the "it's all from one factory" mindset haha. Even as a spider farmer guy I was assuming it was shared technology. I mean how different can fans really be? Turns out a hell of a lot haha. Thanks for the insight. I agree with your ratings too, that new gen 2 is the pinnacle if a little expensive when buying 4 per tent. Happy to know I have a happy medium. I completely agree with you about the Jardins, my local grow shop sighed relief when I changed so they weren't responsible for replacing anymore haha. If they didn't make it to 6 months they would replace and send back. Jardin are insanely accepting of refunds obviously they know they are crap. Anyway thanks again I've subbed and look forward to more equipment breakdowns. Id love some Information on the LED "Booster bars" with UV and IR. I am thinking they are a waste of money as they are UVA and so give no noticeable boost and the "IR" are just reds. Any insight would be great.

I just installed 2 Spider farmer fans recently and they are working excellently and very quiet. Only 7 speeds vs 10 on ac infinity is not a problem. They are well worth the price when you compare them to other brands. I wouldn't let 3 fan speeds be a deal breaker. Save the money and go for the Spider farmer.

The fan only having three speeds instead of 10 is about the least of my worries I think I would have

Great video, I got an email last week a few days after watching the first fan wars. They are offering free replacement upgrades for all customers that have had issues with the first gen fans. Even if you bought multiple they will replace all the fans without needing to return your first gen fans, so I'm finally fully satisfied with AC infinity worth the extra $10 per fan knowing they will do whatever it takes to make it right.

I gotta say thats something we do not often see. Smart move eating the GEN1’s knowing the GEN2’s will buy loyalty for life. AC Infinity has always made RMA’s on defects merely effortless on our end. We just swap with a new one if customer calls or walks in… AC Infinity will send us replacements with zero time delays… we respect that in any MFG who protects their brand backed by a solid warranty 👍

This is awesome 🎉🎉🎉❤

Clicky-Clicky but most still worky worky, just annoying as all BLEEEEEEEEEP ! We learn from our setup woes in a tent layout, make sure those walls aren’t pulling in from negative pressure but also AC Infinity will swap GEN2’s for the clicky-clickity-clack-a-doodle doo’s we all love to hate !!! 😂💯✅

I’m just going to stick with AC Infinity’s S6 V2. Btw just to let you know any clip fans on AC Infinity’s website if it states Pre-Order you will actually receive V2, I even confirmed that with one of their customer service reps. They also can be Pre-Ordered today and they will ship out by the 17th! Mines already on its way. Have an amazing grow and harvest everyone, Namaste.

I remember around a year or 2 ago everybody was looking for a good clip on fan. AC Infinity beat everyone to the game then mars and now spider farmer. Wonder if everybody is getting the fans from the same factory. To clean the blades try twisting the face plates. The AC pops right open

biggest Problem is that they sold out everywhere and prices explode to over 80€

Disassemble it. I believe in your case it's a cog inside it that is not tight enough so the oscillating feature will just skip. When opening from the top it would normally be the first cog you encounter. Edit: UNPLUG IT BEFORE DISSASEMBLE of course.

I was trying to get anyone ov them all out ov stock so i went with the AC infinity cost bit more i like the fan tho

Thanks for the video. I would be happy with either the Spider Farmer or the AC Infinity Gen 2. Unfortunately, in my region, both fans are ridiculously expensive for what they are. I know they have bells and whistle and the low wattage is definitely a plus but I can't justify spending $80 on a freaking fan. Both AC and Spider Farmer have these things way overpriced. I'll wait for a deep discount before I even consider one. Until them, the $20 cheap clip on I have is working great and doing what I need a fan to do.

AC Infinity for the win but spider farmer looks and sounds interesting with that slip gear feature you mentioned

It really was one of my favorite vids to date. Opening these units up shows how serious these companies go with a vision. From what i saw from Mars Hydro states: We are here to make 💰 by cutting corners on quality and design. Thats a $29.99 fan at best IMO… same with VivoSun… cheap light plastic feel… One comment said it best… “Feels like a Toy Fan” Now AC Infinity and Spider Farmer hold the top spots… IMHO. I just call it as I see it. Everyone can make their own call… We are a community and its about the info sprinkled with some laughs in between. Just another day at Garden Supply Guys 🤩💯🌱✅💪

They were my two faves ! Spider Farmers slip gear ⚙️ setup I found cool from a design standpoint. AC Infinity GEN2 with the sensors and recal set points blew my mind as that takes extra $$$ to do that.. and not just a few pennies… that and the neck ball bearing on steal plate… heaviest fan out of all of them and we like weight. Time will tell with all these new fans. May the best ☝️ win 🏆

any fan that uses one motor for the fan and oscillation will fail eventually, the gears are just too weak.

@gardensupplyguys

2 ай бұрын

The single motor just gets overloaded with varying weight loads if you stack it all into one fan function. We saw this with Monkey Fans by Secret Jardin… what a shit show those units were. Just weak and poorly engineered and even the manufacturer would miss greasing the gears properly which would cause drag right out of the box once turned on with oscillation function engaged.

Just bought the spider farmer of AliExpress, mine got 10 speeds and the power cord does not come for the back occilating part but from the buttom part thats stationary(where you connect it to the clipon)

I think it's the same factory making all these. I would buy the one that switched to steel gears ⚙️ instead of the plastic. the oscillating function always break down when plastic. so what's your conclusion which fan is the best out of all? which one shall I order? please I can't watch all these parts of videos. a guess is that ac infinity makes the best oscillating (I think I seen they use USB-C as power cord which is awesome and can be changed if broken or you need a longer one) fans but I haven't tried any name brand at all.

I gotta say the Spider Farmer is much much better engineered vs the Mars Hydro. The Mars is really cheap feeling in weight and plastic grade vs the heavier duty mold, weight as well as the gearing design for oscillation function with the slip gear. Spider Farmer is the only company to drop in that design and it operates very well in a fashion I do not see having a high fail rate. Its our humble opinion. Strongly considering reaching out to Spider Farmer to offer their line.
