FAN WARS: See Inside SPIDER FARMER vs MARS HYDRO Clip Fans 

Love the gutz !!! Its a guy thing… old school 😊

We are always on the hunt for making something fun we feel hasn’t been done… the checklist always has a few in the cue. Working hard though to give you guys more but also gotta give some funny shit added cause thats why we do it ! Love what you do and its not work 💯💯💯

It was our pleasure. We enjoy it too 🌱

They got alot built into that new design and we feel they got it right on the second design GEN2 🏆👍

I do like the slip gear feature. My feeling is this should stand up to time based on what we saw. They did some stuff in that design that is making me consider talking to them… Hey at least they print some shit on the box for retail stores. Says alot about their goals to become a true brand on store shelves 👍

I purchased 2 off of Amazon for $39.99 a piece and satisfied with them. Was seriously considering the AC Infinity but couldn't pass up on the price of the Spider Farmer at this time.

Spider farmer might just be the best bang for the buck in fans right now. Keep making videos I find them informative.

Honestly , I found solution in normal vents what have "nature regime " no more wind stress , no more raise humidity , and run on 15watt from 30 . 16" . Cost 14€ .. so all this not cover grow room area . Maybe for tents but grow in tent is bigest mistake what grower can do 🤣

Bro tents are way more versatile than a room lol I run a Tent City in my Basement and a Facility here in Oklahoma and Tents are just plain better lol ​@@kingkongs9996

Appreciate the detailed input 🙏 Moony keep coming back and sharing. Your timeline on Jardins is spot on also…. Never wanna see another Jardin again. Keep running those spiders ! I think they are a solid design… if anything comes up please share your feedback 🫶🫶🫶

@@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.

The spider we run does not have a power cord issue but glad you like your Mars… thats all that matters 💯

No you guys are awesome with your CO2 Shaker bottles and stuff ! We always recommend the shakers for our tent guys who haven’t gotten a taste/boost of what CO2 can do in their environment.

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 👍

Glad you enjoyed the tear down on these fans… we are working on more each week to share what we can as a grow community. We appreciate your support 💯❤️🫵

Mich würde interessieren wo du die Spider Farmer her hast und was du bezahlt hast? Beste Grüße

You bet! Its our pleasure seeing everyone chiming in … its the fuel we need ✅

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 🏆

It’ll help, missed that i apologize on the detail saying 90

Dats Shitty Shitty 😢 We hope you enjoyed our breakdown !

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.

@@gardensupplyguys Heck ya I appreciate the content! Most likely gonna go with the upgraded AC Infinity fan next time! Thank you 🙏

@@NisseCrusader Thank you I will definitely try this out ! Much appreciated!

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 🤩💯🌱✅💪

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.

VivoSun and Mars Hydro feel much closer to cousins owning factories next to one another 😂 sharing design and molds.

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.

They get the 1 spot followed by a 2 spot by spider farmer… that spider is also respectable… anything below that is less value in my humble tester opinion 🤓✅

I’ve never ran upside downers myself but visualizing your creativity on pedestal fans and making use of them I can only say “Much Love from one Grower to another” 💯💯💯 - Jesse

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 !!! 😂💯✅

Wish they allowed us to upload photos like the new spider farmer fan you got. I gotta say i do like the Spider Farmer also and am using it in a tent right now. It runs solid 👍💯🔌

@@gardensupplyguys i sure never had one that sits so sturdy on the pole and being quiet like that, its only been on for very short time but already way longer than some i have previously owned.

@@gardensupplyguys btw on AliExpress it stated a 10 watt 7 speed version, but i recieved a 9 watt 10 speed version

So glad I ran into these videos. I guess I'll spend the extra money and go with ac infinity again

You would have to send me that seahawk to answer that question 😎

I am 💯 sure a 6.5” blade is gonna push more CFM that a 40mm lil guy 🤓

Hasn’t this been done a few times before?? I was thinking about being creative with inline fans vs the usual inflow outflow… i have some ideas of weird use cases folks may be like…. damn i am gonna run that 💪

You would think 🤔 that would be a big market for AC Infinity.

@@gardensupplyguys yes and in few days the first growshop in germany get ac infinity grow gear 😍😍😍 the only thing i dont buy from them ist led cuz i run 2 sanlight evo in my 150x150 and newer saw that nice ppfd you have no hot spots and the corner in tent have good ppfd reading too no weak spot and a nice effencie 3.> Waterproof IP 65 light and cable too Made in Austria Today my uv bulb from migrolight arrived and i must say the fixture is rly low quality with sharp edges and i cut my Hand with it. The bulb Look good but the fixture is crap i would recommended only buy the bulb and get a high quality fixture in Reptil Store

The spider farmer or ac infinity gen2 are reliable choices. I have tested them for long periods… 💯✅🤓

@@gardensupplyguys Thanks for the feedback mate, I'm trying to get my hands on a AC Infinty over here, but its not easy...

@@gardensupplyguys finally got the ac gen 2, was cheaper to get it from amazon USA ship it over and get a travel adapter... lucky enough it runs 110-240V. But great fan hopefully it will pay for itself ;)

Agreed it was the lightest fan at 1lb 3oz. I also got that vibe when i handled the Mars Hydro as if I was to drop it the fan cage will be the first to shatter.
