Description
Budget fan? Yeah. Weak airflow? Not a chance.
The Black Orchid Hybrid Flo Twin Speed Extraction Fan is one of those rare bits of kit that punches well above its price point. It blends axial, mixed flow and centrifugal fan technology into one unit — giving you proper airflow, real pressure handling, and quieter running than you'd expect at this level.
If you're running a carbon filter, dealing with resistance, or just sick of underpowered duct fans… this is a serious upgrade without going full premium.
Why It Hits Different
- Hybrid-Flo™ Technology – Combines 3 fan types for stronger airflow and better pressure handling
- Proper Carbon Filter Performance – Doesn’t choke under resistance like cheap inline fans
- Twin Speed Control – High / Off / Low switch built in
- Quieter Operation – Less vibration, smoother airflow
- Built to Last – Ball bearing motor + thermal protection
- Easy Maintenance – Removable motor section for cleaning
- Plug & Play – 1.8m UK power cable fitted
Available Sizes & Performance
| Size | Low Speed | High Speed | Noise (dB) | Power |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4" (100mm) | 180 m³/h | 245 m³/h | 32 dB | 25W |
| 5" (125mm) | 240 m³/h | 350 m³/h | 34 dB | 30W |
| 6" (150mm) | 415 m³/h | 565 m³/h | 46 dB | 50W |
| 8" (200mm) | 830 m³/h | 1040 m³/h | 52 dB | — |
What It’s Best For
- Grow tents with carbon filters (where pressure matters)
- Small to medium grow rooms needing reliable extraction
- Budget-conscious growers who still want performance
- Replacing weak axial fans that just aren’t cutting it
Hybrid Flow: Instead of using just one type of airflow (like cheap axial fans), this uses a mix of technologies to push air harder and more efficiently — especially through filters and ducting.
Static Pressure: This is what determines how well your fan performs when connected to filters or long duct runs. Higher pressure = less airflow drop-off.
Real Talk
This isn’t a silent premium EC fan — but for the price, it’s seriously capable. If you're upgrading from a cheap inline fan or starter kit, the difference is night and day.
More airflow. Better pressure. Less noise. No nonsense.
