I would remove the dimmer and just raise the light, see if it helps. Hopefully without the dimmer the light gets the voltage it needs to light the reds and IRs. Try 30”+ to begin with and raise or lower as needed your light is strong.Space is 3 feet long, 5 feet high, 1.5 deep.
I have some tomatoes that are showing similar signs, some leaves dried out, and yellowing of some others. Peppers are doing great though. Dimmer can be easliy removed.
The lights you were thinking of getting are more suitable for a 5x5 space, they’re pretty strong. Look in to either a spiderfarmer or vipar spectra light that is dimmable and full spectrum. Also since you’re in a 3x1 space you shouldn’t need any more than 150W
You may run in to height issues later on in the grow due to only having 5’ but that’s a problem for later
