I'm in the market for a new LED light. There are so many good ones out there but I want the best for a 4 by 4 tent. I would like to hear opinions on the best and why. Money isn't an object. Thank you for your help.

I use 2 Mars Hydro Sp 3000 for a 4x4 table and an Electric Sky for a 2x4 table. I've got some real nice results using both. I honestly just got to borrow Mars Hydro before I bought it. And they were much better then my Vipraspectre that I started with. I don't have a more technical reason.
The electric sky I just got and have only used once. I got amazing results. The company just leans into the wide spectrum idea instead of the white or purple. I figured I'd see how it works.

IMO the Cree XP-G3 are probably the best diodes available but most of the grow lights nowadays are using mid power diodes and not high power. So many options with these mid powers though and they basically are the same. Lower wattage light strips that grow nice even canopies.
If money is no option, you may want to see if any lights are using the Cree.....or not. You'll have more power, but also more heat.

I would not spend your money on blackdog. Disclaimer: I don't like black dog because they sold me shiny garbage in the past. Im sure their garbage is shinier now though.....Just my two cents

well... if money is seriously no object... this is the newest and highest tech light ever conceived... so far. just released this month, or maybe not yet but coming soon.

the lights are top notch, but the control of the lights is the key here, they can control areas and spots and different amounts at different times all to best replicate the optimum conditions

ANYTHING by ChilLED. Commercial fixtures using the best diodes on the market, all built in USA with a 3 year (I think) warranty. Fully modular systems. Their new touchscreen control and spectrum control are just coming out and if I remember correctly arent out yet but preorder is available. I use their x2 330w and added a light bar to equal their x3 330w lights. I LOVE CHILLED’s!

I only have experience with meijiu,spiderfarmer and kingbrite. Its decent enough. The sf feels like the better one of those but its more expensive than those others too.
Many lights are very similar.

With lumatek Zeus pro 600 you got a good light for a 4x4

Black dog ? They are really expensive. If its expensive then I have more faith in electric sky..

But this is one stranger on the internets opinion.

I'm running the Chilled v3 330 and a hlg 350r (diablo boards) in 2 different 2x4 tents and love both. I don't think you can go wrong with either company. Chilled has a cool vid on them making the lights too.
