    I run 3 ACI tents in my lung room and I’m very happy with it all. Easy to control from the palm of your hands! I run their lights, fans, exhaust, humidifiers, dehumidifiers, AC, propagation, you name it! There is a little more to the price tags but IMO worth every penny! Plus you get a badass discount with “Dudegrows”!

      What’s the little thing on the hanging sensor inside your tent?

        It is suppose to block the direct light from hitting the sensor. I read it in a book that you use a white paper cup, cut it to a rough length same as the sensor tip and poke it through the bottom.

      Im jealous of your flaps on your zippers. Mine don’t have those. They are a game changer for light leaks

    Just 2 quick thoughts, if you only want to grow a few plants a 5X5 might be a little more than you need. And the kits are convenient but you can get exactly what you want if you buy the components separately. My experience with my 2X4 kit is that the only left from that kit after 2 grows is the actual tent itself. Good luck 👍🏼✌️

    Hey there! I’ve been using AC Infinity stuff for many years. I use their gear in my own grow and have been very happy with it. I became a distributor for them a few years ago and sold their stuff through my website with lots of happy customers. (I no longer sell stuff directly from my website, but I still promote their gear and offer discounts via coupon code “GrowersLove”).

    AC Infinity makes good stuff and they provide good customer service. Their products are well designed and are usually very reliable. They also have good warranties, so if there is an issue with something they are quick to offer a replacement.

    I haven’t priced out all the items in that 5×5 kit, but it looks pretty good at first glance. I use the similar “EVO 3” LEDs in my grow and have been very happy with them. (730w is probably plenty for a 5×5, but they do sell a 1000w version). The fan and controller are excellent and are very good tools for dialing in your environment. Lots of people in the DGC use AC Infinity tents and seem to be very happy with them. Overall it looks like a pretty complete kit with good quality gear. 👍

    So yeah… that bundle would be a pretty decent way to get started. It comes with most of the stuff you need, its all good quality stuff, and it will have a good warranty and service backing it up.

    Hope that helps with your decision! Feel free to get in touch if you have other questions about getting started! I made GrowersLove.com specifically to help newbies get started with their first grow, so if I can help ya out or offer advice feel free to reach out!

    I’m up to x2 4×4 and a 3×3 all ac infinity everything. Started with budget Vivosun but once I got that controller 69 pro it was a fuse lit. Inline exhaust fans, canopy fans, lights tents the works. Ya definitely see the quality in everything from the clone dome, ph pen to quality tents. Cry once but once- set it and forget it(sorta)

    Add real buckets, grow dots, and recharge to be absolutely the easiest grow ever.

    AC Infinity has the absolute best customer service and quality of anyone I’ve bought anything from.

    Two other things you may or may not need are a heater and/or humidifier. IMO I think their AI still needs some improvement. Hopefully, future updates will improve this.

    I bought the complete 4×4 setup with fans and th s44 ion board light. All their gear has been great but I have burnt out 2 of those s44 lights in less than 2 years. So I would opt for their evo lights. Otherwise happy with all the rest of their stuff.

    I am getting my 4×5 2 in 1 grow tent set up for the winter grow and I love it so far. Tricking it out to be able to run a perpetual grow. It has a small side for seedlings and Veg and the main 4×4 for Flower. My 4×4 Spider Farmer tent is moving to a drying tent for now.

    Don’t make same mistake as I did, I bought a controller 69 Pro. A couple weeks later I purchased a light / co2 sensor to monitor only, to update my manual grow, the box my unit came in didn’t say for A.I use. Contacted customers support because it won’t work with 69 Pro, all I want to do is monitor co2 level not control with A.I. . AC Infinity would only suggest that I buy the A.I. Controller. can’t believe there isn’t a software patch out there to be able just to monitor co2 . Wasted $60.00 but I will not spend another $169.00 just yet, not impressed with customer support.

      @burky62 had same experience, first time dealing with their first gen 6in fan issues they were GREAT! (Which encouraged me to invest far more in their lights) Next time dealing with something else a year or so later their ethos had CLEARLY changed. Now apart from specifically the 6in fans I’d probably look elsewhere
