Hey guys. This is my first post I hope it makes sense.
I have a king plus 1200w full spectrum led light. Actual wattage is 235w power. The manufacturer says it will cover a 1m x 1.6m area.
I have a 1.2 x 1.2m tent. Will this light be enough or as I have 2 lights would it be better with 2 lights or will the one be enough. I only have 2 plants which I will be scrogging.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

You're going to probably want around 400w for a 4x4. About 100w per ft. I'd probably say 2 lights, 1 for each plant to use, and you can lower/raise them independently for each plant.
 
Just my opinion..
Those blurple lights aren't the best, you couldn't give me one.
Something with Samsung lm301h or lm301h chips and Meanwell or Inventronics drivers, would be far superior.
4X4=16sqft @ 35w led/sqft = 560w led.
You could get by quite well with a 480w led in there (that's 30w/sq ft)

Good luck
