Go to Costco or amazon prime or somewhere you can buy a bunch in a pack.
No used cheap burple LED’s? In your search?
Not really much explaining to do. The current offering from ac infinity just works differently than their original controllers.
Another option would be hyperfan with temp controller. Those have a minimum speed you can set, so the fan will always run at set point regardless of temp. From there the fan will ramp up or down to react to actual temp vs setting.

I did this setup today, 8x a19 led bulb 2700k 100w equivalent each, i know its not the best but that’s all i can afford right now!
are they close enough? I put my hand between the top buds and lights, its not too warm for my hand so i presume its good !
And should i put one or two of those bulb ? saw them at the store and wondering if they are good for me ?
Those clamp lights should have come with reflectors. Put them on to help direct as much light as possible toward the plant.
If you bought the lights at a hardware store, you may have missed the reflectors - they come free with the light but are usually in a bin next to the light instead of being screwed on. If you missed them, go back to the store with your receipt and they might still give them to you.

No they didn’t come with reflectors… they where 6$ each so i just bought them… damn 
I gonna go back tomorrow and see if i can find some with reflectors, another beginner mistake i guess !!
Call them, save yourself a trip
I agree with @Nicky
Can you remove diffusers on bulbs? I would try that, then put pcb’s facing plant.

Hey guys, since i put the light on 4 days ago, i can clearly see a difference with the week before that when i was only using the living room window for my daylight!! A lot of new white pistils coming out and buds getting fatter so i think im going on the right track to finish her.
I found some clamp lamp with reflector in another store so im going to add a couple more light, and see if i can remove the diffuser on those led bulb today (saw a DIY on youtube how to remove diffuser)!
As i said before, my goal was to get that plant to the finish line with something decent to smoke and i really think this is what im going to have, not the biggest yeild out of it but im having fun doing it, learning some stuff and you know what, like @dbrn32 said, i think i want to invest some $$$ in a good “one plant” inside mini growing setup for the winter in the futur hehe 
I’ll ask for info in the futur when i’ll be ready to build a setup !
Thanks again to all of you !!

@Sto_418 , I think you made a good choice in going with high watt equivalent LED . I agree with dbrn32, cutting most of the diffuser away will almost double lumen output and provide some directionality. I tried makeing a reflector out of the remaining plastic diffuser, but could not see much difference with a light meter. I do all my veg with 6 14 watt(actual) LEDs and a $30 amazon special A27.
Good Luck

Hey guys, for those who wondering what happen with this purple girl, i had to top the 2 main branches 8 days ago due to some rot spreading on the main stem… you can clearly see it right on the middle on the first pic !
And i let the rest of the plant growing, going to cut it maybe tomorrow !!
This is what the weed look like once dried !! A really good smell and taste, fruity aroma, not too harsh and a good high too 
, Im impress about it to be honest hehe !!
