Hey all, I'm looking for lights for a 4x4 tent. I'm a med student, so money is fairly tight. So far I have been on Alibaba and am thinking of getting 6 of the double 240w from Kingbrite, splitting them 3 per side and running the drivers down the middle of a hanging rack. Then maybe adding a few of the 730nm strips down the middle. Originally I thought of going with 2 of the 320w lights, but I like the idea of being able to spread the boards a little more and get more power with the 3x 240w.

OR I have been looking at HLG's qb96s. I was thinking 2 or 3 of them on each side. If I go the HLG route, I will need to do half the tent now, and add on later probably. I've looked into building a strip light, but my electrical knowledge is severely lacking and I get lost pretty quick.

Any other ideas?

With the qb96s, what driver size would you recommend? I'll probably have to go the Inventronics route as they are a little cheaper than Meanwell. Unless there's other good cheaper options?

I didnt go with kingbrite went with a vendor i think is just as good for a little less selling same lights and went with 6 double 240w on the 4x8 so 3 per 4x4. Great option and my best tents hands down.

Right on, who did you end up buying from? May have to add them to the list of potentials...
