been looking at spider farmer and Mars hydro, I need something that is equivalent to 600w hps, currently running 250w hps but wanting to buy myself a led light
There’s that many models etc I just don’t know which one to buy considering I’ve never used led before

How much canopy space you want is a function of how much yield you want per grow. In soil and without supplementing CO2, one ounce dried per square foot is a reasonable approximation. I want at least 30 watts of LED per square foot for soil and ambient CO2. At least 40W/ft² with hydro and/or CO2. Other features I want include detachable drivers (to get heat out of the tent) and continuous dimmers. I don't know how to get you within your budget buying new from Mars or Spider Farmer. You should be able to find something used around there.
For a 4x4 if you chose spider farmer you would want a SF 4000, a SE 5000 or a G 5000. Those would give you good light for flower across the whole 4x4 area.
or 2 of the sp 150's in a 3x3 would work fine for 1 big plant (trained correctly) a friend of mine uses 8 of these in a basement grow, he brings in good crops every 10 wks. (2 for $180 USD)
