NEW AC Infinity THERMOFORGE T3 Enviornmental VPD Heater OVERVIEW and TESTING
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 10 ก.ย. 2024
- DESIGNED FOR GROWERS
The ThermoForge T3 heater is engineered specifically for optimized temperature regulation in grow spaces. The PWM-controlled build utilizes 3 separate PTC plates to offer 10 true heating levels for precise warmth output. In addition to heating, a 10-level fan mode is available for fresh air intake.
Access temperature and VPD triggers in addition to timer and cycle programming via the onboard controller. These smart controls utilize a corded sensor probe to instantly detect environmental shifts over an extended range. The VPD (vapor pressure deficit) triggers account for ambient temperature, relative humidity, and the plant’s leaf temperature. This optimizes nutrient uptake by allowing you to control growing conditions more precisely than if you were to rely on temperature and humidity alone.
Featuring built-in hosing, the heater also includes a detachable hose that extends its reach by 4 feet in length. This makes it possible for you to target specific areas within your environment and to set it away from your grow tent.

I ordered saucers and lifters from you guys a few years ago. I had no idea y'all were focused on "grow tent gardening". 😅 Pretty cool.
You guys are great BTW. I've ordered more stuff since then and the prices are good, the delivery was quick and the customer service is spot on.
I may have missed you saying this but if not, the Thermoforge can also be used as an In-Take Fan as well to bring fresh air into the tent (stated on AC Infinity’s website) which is absolutely amazing because now you don’t need to have two in-line fans (which take up a ton of space if doing a closed setup). Already have mine pre-ordered (they ship out by May 1st). Have a great grow and harvest everyone, Namaste.
I'm Kicking myself for forgetting to mention that function ! So much appreciated to add it to the board 💯👊🤜🤛
I got one early and absolutely love it. As far as using it for supply air? It would work if you can tolerate the loud fan. You're better off supplying air with a purpose built inline intake fan. You only need heat 12-15 weeks per year anyway. In-line first then get this great heater...🙃🦚
@@billybudz it will only be loud the higher the fan is set lol naturally of course, but if you only have a 4x4 it wont take much like level 3 or 4 maybe 5 at max but I doubt that. It also depends how many plants you're growing as well. Me personally I'm only growing one right now that's filling a 4x4 by itself. Inline fans though take up 2-3 times more space too and I dont have the space to put another outside my tent which then I'd also need to get another carbon filter with it as well and I wont put one in my tent because then that takes away space for my light to be raised, so yeah when it comes down to it this will be perfect. Btw if you tend to put inline fans on 5 or higher they normally start to get loud too lol. Also remember this is the first model which will get updated in the future but this is also the first of it's kind so yeah there will always be a learning curve and no one is saying its flawless we are just more focused on what it's actually capable of doing. Btw heat isnt great for just winter but to also create a perfect drying environment as well, space heaters drop and raise 3 from the temperature you set where at this one is more accurate and will kick on even if it goes down 1 degree which I think is great because then you have a more consistent and accurate dry every time and scientifically proven the more you stay 60/60 your flower will almost always dry exactly 7 days which then even helps add up to better product in the end flavor and potency levels. So if theres a tiny bit of noise its definitely worth that tiny sacrifice lol. Have a great grow and harvest.
I have one now! With my 4" intake set on 2 and the 4" exhaust set on 1, when the T-Forge kicks on (69pro+ set to auto mode which is level 6) it's louder than both circulation fans. Even a clip on fan would supply intake air if positioned at the intake port. The heater is awesome but for intake??? Not recommended based on my hands on experience. The exhaust port on the heater is barely 2.5 inches!
Not a dis!!!✌️🙃
@@billybudz yeah and like I just said buddy once you go past 5 it starts to get loud for any even in-line fans starts to get loud at 5 but I haven’t needed to even go to 4 for my in-line so like I said before I wouldn’t need as high as a level as you so roughly I’d need to go 3-4 max which is half the power that you are using meaning half the noise too. ✌️
Great info! I'm the guy that drove up from west bend.. I learned a lot in that visit and plan on more.. coulda purchased from your website but I prefer face to face and wanted to check out your shop.. The advanced nutes you recommended are on point and the fish shit sample was a plus.. even though you had lunch waiting for you guys you took the time to explain things to me in a way that made sense.. You guys are my new 'go to' when it's time for another trip.. Like I said when leaving your shop " Can't golf , can't fish, might as well grow." See you guys soon.. Wally
I ordered it the day it came out. Been using it a week! Kicks ass for sure!!!! Tents stays within .6* of my set point if 77*
In Australia it's about reducing heat & most times reducing humidity at same time. It was 75rh yesterday and today it's 51rh. These swings are a battle for me! That AC Terra former is what I need to rest alitte more & not worrying about bud rot so much!
This is awesome. One of the best things you can also use this for is heat treatments between runs to help with pests and pathogen. Nice to see a quality heater made to be used properly instead of just using a room heater.
These are cool gadgets for home growers. I need more dehumidification more than anything though personally.
yes me too and cooling :)
Me too! Humidity kills especially during winter!
@Erol593 true but with excess heat i can get around it a little bit with venting & fans. Once well into flower gotta remove that water.
its a warm gadget, not a cool one.....
Stopped by for the review and was introduced to those Secret Jardine cable flanges!!!! Never seen these before, they are an absolute game changer!!! Ordered a few from you guys along with the 6in ducting flange. About to customize my tent like I've been wanting! thank you!!!
Thats the fun part of having a store ! We run around seeing what fits with what…😂
Kids in a candy store basically finding cool solutions just like the Cable Flange. Those flanges are great for adding a port… power cords, a heater or fogger tube… Yes 🙌🏼
Well you’re missing a dehumidifier and an air conditioner, but you’re halfway there
For VPD control? If the intake and exhaust manage heat and humidity then we are all the way there. Each grow/setup is different and may require different accessories to automate with ease.
Thanks for chiming in 🫵💯✅
I love this thing so much I may get an extra one to use as a personal space heater. The tube would go nicely under the covers...oh yeaaah
Lol you're nuts lol
I was thinking the same thing.... Flat tube end direct into the mattress ! MMMM those long winter nights 🥶
Maybethat's what he's warming up.@@harlemstruggle
Lookup BedJet it warms and cools 🥵🥶
@@sacballa_kills_em_wit_facts i’ve seen those 💯😀🤓. I want one for summer time when the covers get hot 🥵
I would love it if AC Infinity made a small AC that works with the Controller 69 pro, with a two hundred square foot area in mind as well. Drying by VPD is also interesting as well, when leaf surfaces are around ambient temperature without any light.
I’m sure they’ll get there I absolutely see them coming up with a dehumidifier and an AC unit just a matter of time
Right there with you… time for a cooling solution via A/C… give us 10,000 BTU or higher !!!!
I had a hard time finding a lower wattage space heater. I didnt need it connected to a controller constantly turning on and off at 1000w+. Finding a 250 - 500w heater is a god send when you're just trying to heat a small footprint.
Theyre amazing! Already have 3!
That heater plus the T3 humidifier would make a killer drying tent/room.
Total control at your finger tips
Does the T3 humidifier need to use it's own prob or can it get the data from the Controller 69 Pro's temp and humidity probe?
Man i just started following you guys and I wish your shop was here in Denmark! 🇩🇰
Glad you like the store… we should really give a walk around video to show the place aisle for aisle… i’ll add it to the list of vids to drop 🫵💯
(Basement dweller here) I havnt tried the heater but had issues with my humidifier. I ended up using the UIS plugs instead and an evaporative humidifier so there is no need to use distilled water. and well the heater wasnt out so Iv been rocking a vivo sun heater which does great as well on a UIS plug. Im going to have to pick up one of the AC infinity heaters next winter and give it a go!
It sounds like a good plan… those UIS Plugs are great for exactly what you ran 👍
Easy on/off with trigger set points thru the APP. I love it myself and the control is a blessing as well as the monitoring charts you can look back on 🤓
My tiny home is only 6x10 and I never went over 600 watts with a regular ceramic heater that is degraded. I like the hose as you can force the air in the direction of your choice, centre floor. This could work well for me.
It would handle that area with ease 🙂
@@gardensupplyguysnice
VPD is the key🌱🌱🌱🔥🔥🔥💨💨💨
Transpiration controls the flow via VPD 😎
My main problem is humidity. It can be 90% outside but it seems to always be 35-40 in my house. In the winter it's the worst. During the rainy spring months, I can get up to 50% IF it's raining outside and I open a window. I'm hoping to get AC's humidifier this fall.
...Know that you are not alone ✌️
I just hooked up with a T% Humidifier. GAME CA AC Infinity ROCKS!HNGER!@@gildedude333
There is no fan speed control apart from heat intensity. To use this heater as an intake would be like using a hair dryer as an intake. To each his own✌️
AC Infinity is the best imo
You are not alone fellow grower 🌲💯🤓
Thanks for sharing
If the basement stays really cool like ours, what use is the hose without any kind of insulated sheathing on? By the time the heat gets to the grow tent its gonna be constantly on and condensation build up in the hose and your energy bill will take a hit. Think i'm gonna take a miss on this and stick to a good ol trusty mini heater that's worked for years.
So, does this unit control vpd without upping the temperature in the tent? Is this ACI's solution to dehumidification?
Thanks for sharing. May I ask if it can remember my settings after a power outage?
Why not add 400 watt hid light to heat your tent or area? It's the same wattage.
Maybe you would want the heat during lights out.
Well put. We still sell lamps in shop for those cold basements in winter that need that radiant heat production… kudos for thinking like a grower 🌱🫵💯. Much respect ✊🏻
Dude I need this!!
We all do 🙌🏼
man i would like to see it in action how long time it takes to heat a tent up from 55 to 75 or so. i think this is a very good product for me in sweden 🥶 i think im getting one.
if only uou had a EU store 😢
i wouldnt have to buy all kind of difrent brands. the shipping to sweden is couple hundred dollars
62.1°c
I wonder what the ambient temp was and how many btu's it outputs 🤔
Could you heat a tent in a seperate structure. Enough to not to cycle on to often when it's low single figures outside, maybe dipping below freezing
A little confused by how you envision the setup as separate structure in single degree temps.
Its 520watts max power… its powerful but it sounds like what you are thinking may not be enough BTU output to maintain optimal grow room temps with such a low varying external temp to outside grow tent ⛺️
I would be really surprised of the efficiency of this heater is any better than most others. They are all about the same.
This one has a higher efficiency than the energy hogs sold at big box stores. That is will stand on 💯🤓🫵
Vivosun getting Smoked!
😆🙌🏼💪
Get them to make an AC unit in this same form factor!
We have a hunch that an AC cooling /Dehumidifier combo for grow tents is coming. When is the question 🧐
Can we get the Controller settings and/or automations used to keep it that consistent? Would be a great starting point for anyone looking to do the same.
What set points would you like to maintain? We could email you a screen shot or breakdown to help you out 🫵💯
Is there a new gen2 cloudforge? That box with the blue print looks different
That is the Gen2 … Seems like all Gen2 are showing in blue box for both T3 and T7 models… 👍
Hi, love your channel. Hoping you have a link for the tent hole cable flange?
Cheers
Here you go !

When are they going to do a dehumidifier that's all I need in Southern California, need it for grows & drying
Can you ship us some of that sunshine and heat down to Green Bay, WI… friggen cold 🥶 here
Would they have something like this for cooling? I live in a hot environment and I struggle to keep my tent below 70f even in middle of winter
Not yet but hoping soon !
we need an cooling unit now
Are you going to do a video on the gen 1 vs gen 2 T3 humidifier like ya did with the s6 oscillating fans? I thought the in depth look at the differences between the fans was an awesome video.
I have a Gen 1 that no longer works so naturally I took it apart. Not impressed with the main contol board. Sloppy soldering and no name I.C's on the tiny board that would be a nightmare to fix. Also the main board had some writing on it like it was reworked in the factory. I just got the Gen 2 one week ago under warranty and I am resisting the urge to take it apart. The main difference I can see is that you can use the Gen 2 without the controller 69.The T3 has 3 contoll boards, main, power supply and a small board for the ultrasonic disk. Power supply and ultrasonic boards are off the shelf. Main board is proprietary/custom.
Done ✅. Check our latest uploads. Hope you enjoy it.
Should of added a cool setting it would of changed the game completely!!!
Is the photo bio par tester any good or better to get spot on tester?
PhotoBio is just as good as the SpotOn. We tested both side by side and readings were exactly same. We also like the handheld meter sensor on wire better for spot checks quickly vs having to stand up the SpotOn meter.
Go with the PhotoBio Advanced Quantum PAR Meter… 💯😎🌱
@@gardensupplyguys Thanks when I purchase it I’ll give y’all the biz for replying to me.
Are you sponsored by ac infinity
Nope just breaking down products.
We have a store full of goodies to go through yet 💯💪
500 Watts in Germany unfortunately not affordable to let the extra run 😅
hey i need this im from Bulgaria can send ?
Reach out to us on our chat 💬 at www.GardenSupplyGuys.com
We can run a quote but fair warning the cost to ship will be greater than the cost of fan 👎🏻✅🫣🫣🫣
I need it cooler
Sure a fan or air conditioner will do that 😂
Thanks for keeping the comment easy 🤓
Appreciate you watching 🫵
So it is a heater and humidifier in one of so that would be very nice if it is only a heater that's dumb to make a inline heater only.
It is a Heater Only, but many would say it comes in very useful this time of year.... Also for VPD Control this is the way !
Mine will be here Wednesday..
So this is “dry heat” ?
Yes, there is no built in humidifier. Thank You for the question on the board Mike
is that a pig shaped watering can with holes in its snout for pouring 🤣
You know it ! I wanna turn one into a decorative pig cloner system using the snout holes to drop two cuttings into with an air stone bubbler in the belly base.... Future Patent coming soon on pig cloner 😆 Here is the link to the Pig Watering Can: www.gardensupplyguys.com/products/novelty-manufacturing-co-pig-watering-can-1-75-gal
ACI needs to make a humidifier
they do, he mentioned it the vid, I have one and it works well :)
My t7 humidifier kicks ass and has for a year!!!
No one listens to those videos ! 😂🫵💯
The test needs to be in an actual grow space
We are running an 8x8 with some very nice control using the ThermoForge…. it can maintain those night time temps where we set even though it drops to 55 degrees external temps… internal we can move to 65-70 degrees and hold constant in dark cycle.
@@gardensupplyguys nice to hear..
Too bad it doesn’t support 220-240V…
Not at this time 😔 220-240V is off the table. Thanks for mentioning though 🫵
We appreciate all comments here 💯
For pushing this product on people who don't know any better, you should be ashamed of yourself
Spend 1500 an a new setup and acinfinity a terrible company killed my grow light refused support shame on them terrible support terrible company
How did Ac infinity kill your light?
@Hoodstar87 they said there smart system using there rj11 cables were compatable with my light we plug them in and they started to all flicker contacted acinfinity told us it was normal checked on the light the next day and my light had only one panel on and the dimmer no longer worked the didn't fix the issue till 3 months after they had already killed my grow light
@@GrowTentGaming-pj4yrI have my lights on a digital timer. I was thinking about connecting them to the contoller 69. Is there any benefit to doing so? Other than turning them off and on? I can dim my lights on the driver.
@wambsganz8 I bought mine for there sunrise sun and sun set feature but either than that it's feels just like every smart system with the same features and way more expensive I would honestly just stick with the digital timers
Which grow light? Is it the I'll make up a story to bag on AC infinity model no such thing? Whatever liar!😂
Not a fan of companies that advertise products they can't even supply
Well we hope you enjoyed the video 🤓
Breaking down the product is what we do on new releases. It helps us better understand the products ourselves as growers we support. It is not our intention on this channel being a sales platform. If you choose to shop with us we thank you for your support 😎👍
I understand getting new releases in high demand can be frustrating as we all want them now if we need the solution 💯💯💯
