I think Im just gonna go with the sf-2000. Nice & simple. Just hate it after I buy something that I wasnt able to research a bit first then see something later on that I could have gotten that was way better or cheaper even. I get buyers remorse with everything I purchase here lately.

Just incase anyone was curious, heres a pic or 2 of some of what Ive got growing at the moment. Nothing professional like some of you, but this is my first grow & Im not gonna give up even if this one turns out unsuccessful. Just wish I would have done photos or autos, not both at the same time.

3-400
Then the dimmer for veg
You probably wouldn't go over 50-75% power for veg with the sf2000

Judging from the info listed in this picture would you agree that the Migro Array 4 + red is a better light at a better price point than the sf-2000?

Yes I would agree that light is better for sure

i was only saying that because everybody upgrades at one point or another.
In your case , i would build a custom light with led strips that would go up to about 400 watts ish... depending on the driver i choose.
Since your not building your own , i would go with 3x qb boards or any 300 watt led with quality diodes. the 320 watt kits they have would light you up perfect. that would put you at 32watt sq/ft which is plenty to make good quality flowers. If you go with QB boards then place them in a triangle in your closet.
The cheapest suggestion is a 400 watt hps.

can you modify the frame on that to fit in your space?

Yes , that is a good light. I love bars because you can move them.
I would go to alibaba for good deals. shipping is fast usually. 1 buck per watt is a better price point.

Yes the timber is too close to the photos at the moment but i cant raise it up too much further thats why Im about to buy another light & separate them. Its only pulling about 170w from the wall at the moment

does your tent allow you to add another 2 feet to the top section?

i had the same issue with my first led grow. i got 2 A8's (650 watt bar lights) in a 5x10 tent and had to leave them on the ceiling the whole grow. With all that mylar surrounding the plants , i dont think they could have used much more light anyway. So i was at 24watts per sq/ft with the lights about 30" from the main canopy and did great.
