OK guys I'm already running a 5x5 with 1k hps, and a veg room with 2 4ft 8 bulb t5s (led t5 replacement bulbs)

I want to purchase a 4x8 tent for flower, and I have been looking at and wanting some qb to light it up! I have seen the hlg 550 and two of those would cover the tent nicely! But they are a Lil pricey and since I have to buy 2 of them to cover a 4x8 tent it's a Lil out my reach!

What other qb could I get and still cover my 4x8 tent 100% I was wondering if maybe 4 of the hlg 100 boards would work they are only 150 a piece!

Any help of advise is appreciated and thank you guys for your time!

I have a 550 and a 300 in my 4x8 . I could use more light tho. The 600h diy kit is a monster could always go two of those for less than 2 550s.

But that's still over 1k cash I can't really spend that my limit would be around 600

The wife would kill me I'm expanding and already have 1k bill for other stuff!

Why not just get one 600h or a cpl of the 320w xl kits , run them in your 5x5 for now then save to get another fixture for the bigger tent. I recently swapped from hps to qbs as well, ive got a few environment crinkles to iron out, but im very happy so far.

Make 3 frames and put four quantum board 120's or 132's on each. 250 watts per fixture.
