These lights have been tried and discarded as crappy long time ago. Let me guess:
You found favourable reviews on amazon? No real point listening to reviews when they dont compare to another light.

For what space? Where are you located? How do you deal with heat, ac or vented? Can you do basic diy, as in pushing a cable into a a pushin connector? Basic 'almost finished' DIY is usually the best bet.

@Rocket Soul im trying to grow in a 5x5x6 grow tent I’m located in Southern California an I have a 6in 400c inline fan an a small fan in the tent to move air around I purchased the trio from fox farm an some seeds from Seedsman. I’m pretty new at this I just really wanna know if I’m doing anything right so far ? I forgot to mention I have some seedlings about 10 days old

Had another look at the p450 and it is crappier than what i thought. Please dont buy it, you will throw your money away. Alll of those amazon sold, blue and red with a few more wavelengths are crappy as Fk.
Get a light based on white light. For that space: not that many lights that works well for a 5x5, to get that kind of throw you need sometthing really large. Better think of 2-4 smaller lights.
Check out this company which is a sponsor of this forum: horticulturelightinggroup.com.
Their finished lights are a bit expensive but they have several diy options. Theres also a few other US options. Another alternative is buying some gear from alibaba.
Do you have a budget?
My standard advice for US located is HLG qb96 Diy. Your space could be done with 6 of those (about 400$) and 3 meanwell xlg240 drivers (another 100$ approx) and plus cost of hanging, cables and frame. Its the best price i can find in us for something good and backed up by proper warranty.
