I disagree Geoff, I have the 12" GSO and the volume of air passing out the top of the tube when the fan is running is very high, it clearly passes over the entire mirror and up the tube, if you have any doubt, try putting the cap on and removing the smaller aperture cap, the wind blows quite strong. Viva la GSO.
