  • Weight : 7 lbs
  • Actual Power: 240 watt ±3%
  • Input: AC100-240V, 50-60Hz
  • Core Coverage: 2x4 ft

If the light does what it says it does than that should be sufficient I think.
240watts / 8 square feet = 30w per square foot

Those are 90w draw so with two you’d have 180w which is less than the other light.

Look at their actual power draw.

Buy as many watts as you can afford
es300 be nice expensive tho
two sf1000 or equivalent would be ok but probably really need 3 or 4
having multiple lights is nice if
you grow different strains and they are different heights you
can adjust So they all get most light they can

i am running over 400w of different leds in a 3x3
