    Question 1x 600w or 2x 600w

    I'm wondering what difference it would make adding an extra 600w light to my setup?
    I've got a 1.5x1.5m tent with 8" fans in and out so shouldn't have a problem with temps I'm not looking to fill the hole tent with plants just 4 in scrog with 1.5x1m mesh to leave plenty of room to work on them.
    Would adding another 600w be worth while and what would this achieve?

    Are they 80cm ones? You will struggle to fit 2 of them in that tent.
    Tbh mate I Would stick to 1 x 100cm parabolic and 600w(660w)..you can still do really well.. 2 of them double the cost of leccy and won't be as efficient as they will be in a bigger space.

    1000w ?. I went from a 140cm to 120cm becuse it was too big for the 600w i was using.

    I have seen someone attach two parabolics together before now.
