Lighting Upgrade?

I'm considering upgrading my lighting.
Currently I have one Mars TS1000 in a 2x4 tent.

My initial thought was to just get another TS1000, for $130.00.

Then I thought if these Spider Farmer were any better, I might get 2 for approx $150, for a total of 3 LED's, but I dont know anything about them...

And then there are these guys at $100, which I also know nothing about;

Thoughts?

Check the Best Deals thread from the last few days. @Marq1340 posted some discount codes for SUNRAISE qb2000 making them under $100. Two of those would be perfect in a 2x4 tent.
 
Those deals are done.
I decided to go super cheap, and picked up 2 of these 2-packs.
For $35.00 it was easy to take a gamble and see if they hold up for any length of time.

Description says only 70w total power. They are selling it as equivalent to 200w HPS. Depending on your budget, I'd cancel that order and get something else.
 
I didn't cancel, and hung the lights. Not sure how much they put out but they
Is it possible to have too much light?
Or would one just adjust the distance?20210629_194341_HDR.jpg

Yes, too much light can stress and/or burn your plants. When the light source is farther away, the intensity of the light on the canopy is lower. Also, some lights have a dimmer.

@Marq1340 posted some very good deals today. The same code works on 200w and 400w lights.
