Iv got 1 600w light for it but iv got one of those ballasts that you can adjust to 50% power if need be so i should be okay, how many plants you putting in your tent Scottishchap and how long you gonna veg and flower for? just wondering as your is the same height as mine

    29 in winter though, if u grow an indica dom to 12 inch u should have enough room (remember u gonna need a gap between light and plants) for it but a sat dom u looking at having to bend it everywhere, i had one of them tents and i found a 250 enough but i only ran the smallest extraction.
