Whos having success growing in a 4'x4' tent?
What light are you using? You happy with it?
What lights DID NOT work for you?
First-timer here trying to figure out a GOOD light, not necessarily the BEST light, definitely not a JUNK light, that WON'T disappoint.

Soooo many choices these days, even the companies that spent years selling junk are making reasonable lights that produce .

I would run any choices past members before buying. Don't rush into anything
 
I would recommend a bar style light for the best light distribution.
Company wise Mars Hydro or HLG have some good entry level lights. If you're trying to drop over $1k per light i would do your own research into Gavita, Growers Choice, SynceLED, or Fluence.

I wouldnt go less that 600w per 4x4 section. Im at 800w per 4x4 at home. Once you're dialed in and have C02 you could run 1000w.

I have gone with a Mars Hydro FC E8000 in my 5 x 5 tent.
There's a shortage of decent lights here in Thailand at the moment due to the recent legalisation of cannabis. Would have preferred one with the Samsung / Osram chipset but hey ho, beggars can't be choosers.

How does this light do w temps does it run pretty hot? I just picked up a pair of them curious
You will sit around 85F with the driver mounted outside the tent at 100% power in a 4x4 (at least that’s what mine warms up to)
With AC on in the room, I can get it as low as 77F at 100% power while extraction is running mid level + 1 vent open on the bottom.
