Noob Lighting Set Up

Hi this is my first post. I've been spending the last two weeks reading like crazy on this forum. The knowledge here is insurmountable.

I'd like to do 1-2 non-auto northern lights in a 2x2x4. I'm going with this lighting set up:

1- QB288 Quantum Board V2 (LM301B) - 3000K
1- Slate 1 Heatsink for Quantum Board
1 - MeanWell HLG-120H-48A Driver (I noticed HLG uses the 54a for their driver, will this make a noticeable difference?)

Is this enough juice? Thanks!

That driver has a range of 43v-53v and that board to get 120w will be 49v so it will work.

Or if you haven't bought the driver you could use a meanwell XLG-150-h-ab which is cheaper ,smaller and lighter and will give you more juice if you want it.

Hey man, are you buying these components through Cobkits? I don't know if he has any Slate 2 heatsinks available, but the Slate 1 heatsink is only recommended for up to 100 watts.
