Looking for opinions on some amazon grow lights. Have a 350 budget and I will be order a hlg Scorpion Diablo in May so I'm just looking to get by for now.
So far I see the mars hydro tsl2000
And the xs2000 that seem to be pretty decent for the price. Looking for any recommendations, and or reviews on your favorite lights in the category.

Certainly a decent light but as my mars hydro it has no infrared spectrum.

So looking on the vast interwebs I've came to two choices that I'm having a hard time with
The viparspectra xs 2000 which seems to have great review
Or this hlg special the qb648 Diablo double slate

I use the BP3000 for veg and can say for the price, its a damn good little light. IDK if its got enough watts to flower a 4x4 like they say as I've never tried but it will veg some beautiful plants in a 4x4...I think I paid $230 shipped. Worth every penny.

I think its like 35-40 watts per square foot for optimum flower. So 4x4 =16 sq ft x 35 =560watts So you are just about there. I would say that would be enough to produce some nice flower.
