FAN WARS: See Inside AC INFINITY S6 vs VIVOSUN E6 Clip Fans 

Wolf of Wall Street and I quote: Sell me this Pen 🖊️ 😂🤓💯

AC Infinity in Sand Lot terms. 1. The Beast 2. The Great Bambino 3. Wendy Peffercorn 4. PF Flyers 👟

Always welcome 🤗

Nailed it on the head. Couldn’t of said it better from our end 💯☝️👍🌱✅

We enjoyed this one ☝️. It was a blast gutting these units 😮

Its silky-smoooove… imo, let us know what you think after a few weeks 👍

They are out ! Wooo hooo 😁

Much love from the Cheese Heads in Wisconsin 🧀 to our boys in Berlin 🫵💯❤️🌱🤓

Thats whats up 💪. Sounds like you also probably take some time to ensure your fans are cleaned periodically. Always a good practice for any fan in a grow environment.

​@gardensupplyguys, you should always clean your fans. Dirty fans reduce airflow. Dust also traps heat. I clean my pc fans every month even if they don't need it.

Much love ❤️ from across the pond in Green Bay, WI 🌲🌲😎. We’ll keep at it my friend! Appreciate the supportive message. That alone makes our efforts worth while hearing you🫵❤️💯

Love it keep it up 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿❤️💯

Some people think we are paid by AC Infinity…. I fricken wish we got that AC Infinity moolah… We just point out the details and facts. Breaking these fans open helps answer alot of questions 🤓 I personally appreciate design and details like going through these inner mechanics 🧰

@@gardensupplyguys i was just amazed with the new features. After seeing your vid i know these new upgrades will last for a good while. Great stuff 🙌

Glad you enjoyed it, we enjoyed making it for you 😎

Mars Hydro is also working great too. Just wish it was controlled by the main controller and had more speeds.

Spider Farmer have the best built so far

Yeah my ac infinity starting clicking right away pretty loud. The vivo sun is pretty quiet so far but only 2 days with it.

We appreciate the love here ❤

Gen 2 S6 is a beast design 💪

Glad you enjoyed it. Facts matter to us.

Great input… I remember the ol clip fan big box days… 20 years ago thats all we had in most cases… the clips were junk… zip ties became essential for everything 🤣😅🤓 If your shop down the road doesn’t have the GEN2’s you can hit our link below. We just received our shipment. We ship fast, 6% off in cart sale 🛒 Call ☎️ if you have any questions www.GardenSupplyGuys.com

Too funny i actually mentioned that as well… response was to check their FB page. Thats where they make the new stuff coming soon posts.

@@gardensupplyguys that’s stupid since FB is dead basically and I can’t check because I shut my account down well over 15 years ago. If they can keep up with constantly improving all their tech why can’t they improve the website the way all their loyal people actually want, idk it’s just me personally but it seriously makes no sense for them to really only put it there when you can post it to their website and all other social media platforms cause if you can’t focus where the current social media trend is happening then put it on their site to make sure all buyers are constantly aware which then naturally will improve sales by at least 10% or even higher, or heck do it through email service so that people are always up to date no matter what through a simple news letter. Oh yeah I’ve even come across where they released new products but it wasn’t even in the new Products list on the front page lol. Honestly their site needs to be updated a bit cause yeah seeing new is great for sure but with them that feels more like your learning about it at the very last minute and like I said sometimes you don’t even see it mentioned on the front page. Apologies for the long reply lol. Have an amazing upcoming month, Namaste.

6 years out of a Hurricane clippy deserves our Trophy 🏆 for you maintaining your fans 👍. We sold plenty of those before the DC motor designs arrived. Sad that Hurricane is no longer produced… Thank Monsanto-Scotts for that brand dying 😢

Yeah the Hurricanes are built slightly better than the Monkeys imo lol I've been using them for around 10yrs

Thanks, will do! We appreciate the fact people even watch our stuff 😂🌱❤️

@@gardensupplyguys would love to have you come up and do a tech corner bit on the pod cast that we do TheHappyCultivator/HILLSGROWS SHOW @ @TheHappyCultivator

@jhillsgrows we would love to come on to your show for a podcast!

We dropped a first video on AC’s Gen2. This is when VivoSun was mentioned a couple times so we did a comparison. Not a sales pitch when we just point out the design. Just make your own choices after doing the research👍 I think we need to order in some Mars and Spyder units next. We love taking a look inside and it looks like others wanna see too.

I got a Vivosun E6. It was on sale on Amazon, and with a coupon code, I got it for $25. Had it about a month now, working well, very quiet, and a surprising amount of airflow produced. I'd like to try one of the AC Infinity Gen 2, but I believe he said it's a February release..?! Really great info, as I've seen others review/plug these new AC Infinity Gen 2 fans, but none have said they're "not yet available". Lord knows how many Gen 1 fans have been sold through "sponsors", showing off the new Gen 2, because said "sponsor" didn't say they're "not available until February". Similarly, some Vivosun sponsors have been showing the newest Tent models, much denser, better made, etc. Only to find out later they're not available yet either. This was the best fan review I've seen! I'd love to hear about the new Spider Farmer, and Mars Hydro, DC motor fans..?! Maybe you've already reviewed them..?! I'll check. And subscribe, if I'm not already subscribed.👍💯✌️

Hmmm when I looked at the VivoSun AC cable I believe it was a direct connection up into the housing. Swapping this out is not an option if that the case… fully attached means one piece and no Apples to Oranges… back to Apples 🍎 vs 🍏

@@timturk1899appreciate that Tim. I think we gotta get the Mars and Spyder models and to do the same breakdown.

@@gardensupplyguys But you can unsolder the old cable and solder a new cable to the terminals instead of throwing out a one piece motor/transformer/rectifier. Which all produce heat, You don't run 120v ac to your laptop. It runs hot enough without the transformer packed in there too. I wouldn't buy a fan with a dc motor to begin with. Better yet get the Vivosun A6 with an ac motor. Your exhaust fans are ac, they run 24/7 forever, the bearings will go before the motor. Every other fan in your house has an ac motor, bearings or cord are the fail points, rarely the ac motor. I call bs on your whole video.

Wow ok 👌 I've had more stand up Oscillating fans fail than I can count 😅😅

Interesting how a Gen2 would click? The design wouldn’t allow. Make a video and text it to our store phone: 1-920-857-9493 Would love to see/hear where you say its clicking… A Gen1 will click, a Gen2 🤨🤨 Follow up 🫵🤓✅

If there was a way to put a comment directly at the very top 😂… Hey with enough time and toke we can solve world hunger next 😊

We just ordered in a Mars Hydro and Spider Farmer. We will be ripping them apart soon to do FAN WARS 2. Be sure to subscribe and check it out. We wanna see ourselves 💯

Appreciate the input… keep growing 🌱

Early to Mid February 👍

It may clicky-clicky but if it still worky then run it if AC sends out a GEN2 👍 Thats a bonus backup 💯

@@gardensupplyguys ok ✅

Yeah ACI is replacing all gen1 units rn ..😉🤙

@@winstonpratt604 great service and a respectable move ✅

Simulating natures breeze inside a tent is where clip fans are popular. Internal external vents does not achieve natures breeze and give your plants the right shake and shimmy promoting cellular division. Brushless motors are DC. Find what works and run it. You are right though… Buying a brand is not what makes you a good grower… its how you use the product that assists your grow in being optimal for the plants 🪴

@@gardensupplyguys sorry I typed that wrong I meant to say you need to exchange air 10X the square footage per minute. And brushless motors will safe you from house fire. Using good cabling from uline is best to as they are industry used in machine shops.

Well good news is this ! We got the new SPIDER FARMER and MARS HYDRO on order to do the same breakdowns inside.... So far what we have seen is each fan is essentially engineered differently. They may contain the same functions yes, but growers need to see what they are buying. We do it for the community. From what we see the New GEN2 AC Infinity is in the strong lead with its design and zero point re-cal function. Thanks for watching we love you guys !!!

@gardensupplyguys yes. Interesting video for people like myself. You have grow store back drop which is a great aesthetic others do not have. Great breakdown of the gear. Feel like I'm at the grow store.

With the added UIS Plug 🔌 you can control any product using 120v with a trigger setting using the AC Infinity app… so yes you can but with an added AC Infinity accessory.

They do have a 2 year warranty. Contact AC or your retailer and get them replaced. You paid for oscillation and you deserve what you paid for.

@gardensupplyguys yeah, my local store has taken care of me.

Definitely had fun looking inside. Second Fan Wars was good too between Mars/Spider. Our GEN2’s arrived and its still the best banger out 🏆💯 at price to feature/design. Spider Farmer has my attention also for their design.

my gen 2s just arrived as well they are beeefy@@gardensupplyguys

Just keep the blades clean and keep em going 👍

They are doing a gen 2 replacement thing rn if you go full out the Forms on the site ....😜🤙

We did a Mars Hydro vs. Spider Farmer Fans. Here you go! Be sure to subscribe and we got new drops each week for breakdowns and learning vids 💯💪 FAN WARS: See Inside SPIDER FARMER vs MARS HYDRO Clip Fans ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-VtJq4cyTWUs.html

I do not believe they are still importing these fans into the USA. Did Secret Jardin change from a 120vac motor? If not stay clear as DC Motors is the only way for 24/7 applications.

We have some Gen1 clickers running here 24/7. So far no failure, just the sweet sounds of…. Click, click, click but you get use to the beat… 🎶

If it works it works … we loved Hurricanes but their clip and wall mounts are discontinued now… Hawthorne ruined that brand 😔

What if water falls flat into the USB-C cable plug at either end and makes it way into the port causing it to short or corrode. We pointed this out in Fan Wars Video on the Mars Hydro fan we tested. It had a cheap usb power plug direct from china with a USB regular plug… bad idea with high moisture areas like grow rooms ⚡️🔥

I’ll have to check it out. Didn’t know they released one. In your opinion what do you like most about it? Let us know. We always seek the best for our shop

We ordered a SPIDER FARMER and a MARS HYDRO - FAN WARS 2 coming soon !

We felt this video had to be made for that reason exactly 👍

Just like the rock band.... We got AC/DC ! DC Motors good, AC Motors bad : ) Yes I was saying DC Motor with my poor midwest rasp. Thanks for watching though... we appreciate it !

But they do based on our testing. The head above twist the main electrical wire line down through the neck pivot point. The clearance is tight inside where we pointed out, over time it is possible… its cool you have your own opinion… this is just what we see.

the improved desgins were thought of by USA engineers. the cheap design was Chinese engineering

We all know 99% of electronics are manufactured in china. No avoiding that due to costs. Apple also makes their IPHONES in china. Design is what matters 👍 When we say cheap china just refer to the first fan cause that was made knowing it would fail in a few weeks or months. No one wants to deal with that.

I would check your sources on that one. AC, Mars, Vivo and Spyder are not the same companies. All separate all vying for market share trying to create a better product than the next guy. This is good for the consumers. It pushes innovation and better designs from an engineering standpoint 👍 This is what makes the industry fun !

@gardensupplyguys I don't want to blow my source up or create drama, but let's say it was someone highly influential in the grow light industry who is known for their honesty and fairness in comparison tests. He only told me this after I lamented how it seems like how they all just let AC do the r&d work and then come out with cheaper/worse copies themselves like parasites to the industry.

​@@Shakshuka69depends. Everyone basically follows HLG, as far as light until the bar light design hit. Second, the tents are made in the same factory. So there is validity to your remark but I not that serious

Or just do a cleaning on blade and a good blast of air to the gear areas to free up anything… a good cleaning keeps things like new. Or buy a new one and save time cause time is money in the grow world 💯

So zero air path changes in flow? Just ducts blowing? Huh 🤔 Well we like to simulate nature a little more…. Making your plants have a nice shake with changing direction increase stalk and stem strength and promotes strong cellular division. Without this you may be missing out on pushing those plants 🪴… sure plants wanna grow regardless… they will always try to thrive, but ask yourself what more could you do to optimize/maximize the perfect environment to get 💯 % out of the work you put in 💪. Its what we teach to our customers. There is a simple science behind indoor grows….. REPLICATE NATURE where the genetic evolved and started from and perfect its an environment.

@@gardensupplyguys I also use fans

We are going to do Mars vs Spyder Farmer next… getting some comments on these two units and people saying we are an AC Infinity commercial. That was not the point… The point is to show people what is inside driving these units and what we see. Round two coming soon !

@@gardensupplyguys​​⁠​⁠ I’m interested in seeing that video so I just subscribed to make sure I see it. Personally I didn’t think it was a bias opinion you offered. You literally shown the components and explained the pros/cons. Nobody has done a review like this on RU-vid I believe. This is what the gardening community needs

Hmmmm whats enough then? Maybe move up to a larger fan blade size. 12” or 16” may be what you need.

We definitely feel your pain on that one. I remember those units. That was the un-named we did not want to speak of 😔

10$Amazon monkey fans. That's all i mess with now. Not bad at all for the price. No issues for 3 grows so far

The GEN2 AC Infinity is rated at IP44 for light wet conditions like over spray hitting the fan. The new waterproof UIS Plug is a great improvement. VIVOSUN does not have an IP rating : (

If it is I haven’t seen a damn dime of that money 💰

We sold Hurricanes also. They do fail and the clip units are AC. Also Hurricanes are now discontinued and no longer produced. We like their wall mount fans alot and had to switch to Active Air brand 👍

@@gardensupplyguys- Easy There Geronimo… That Comment Is Likely From A Vivoson Rep. The Only Real Faults That AC Infinity Has… Are Their Supplier/Capital Short Coming Issues. Instead Of Their “CHINA” Orders Sitting On The Boat For 11/2-2 Months… They Need To Jump On Investors Who Inquire About Whether They May Be Interested In Taking A Worthwhile Investors Money To Bring Manufacturing Stateside. Especially When, AC’s Achiele’s Heel Is So Plainly Obvious To Most. “Capital”. Anyone With The Money, Would Have Taken Control Of Manufacturing, Instead Of Farming It Out Halfway Across The World.

My AC clip fans have been running for a year. The oscillation motors are tired and noisy but the fan itself works perfectly and it's the only affordable fan i know of with 10 speed settings

Seemed fair and honest imo also, actually went into detail and opened up the gear guts so we could see. This is a good video considering the amount spent on these fans with semi-concerning reliability. ​@gardensupplyguys

We see the new design on the AC Gen2 as a real step forward in fixing some of the headaches we see with the clip fan world.

😂 🔥… We hope not

If they work then you save those ducketts 💴 for other grower essentials…😊

😂 Sooooo you didn’t like the video and what was shown ☝️

We listen and respect like minded ideas. Next vid is sounding like Mars Hydro vs Spyder Farmer Clip Fans. We are growers too. Knowing the facts is good 👍

Our best guess is folks bump into the heads knocking them off zero point. Or the head hits tent walls or other obstructions. This is where the issue begins with gears binding.
