    Default Recommendations on a new light for a 2x4 Tent please

    Hello all! I've recently purchased a 2x4 ft tent standing at 180cms! I was just wondering if anyone has any ideas or experiences with different lights in this size tent! Many thanks

    Was looking at somesort of Led's.
    Been looking at the SP250, they seem solid and have good reviews and results posted on YouTube.
    I can't seem to find them anywhere for purchase in the UK? The next step is looking at the SP3000's little bit more power from them but I could dimm them down!
    Apparently have some of the best Par numbers for a 2x4 tent!

    Price isn't too much of an issue! Could spend maybe up to 500 maybe 600 for the right light!

    I have that same tent. If you can pull cold air in at night then maximum 400w HPS (cool tube even better) with a 5 inch extraction but still a bit too warm imo. I’ m just making the switch to LED.

    What light did you settle with in the end?
    I've got 3 Barneys farm seedlings sat under a TS600.
