Will 2 of these work for a 32"x20" space

You would need the right base to screw them into, not sure if those are standard or more HID type.
Then you would want a reflector, even a home made one, since they are omnidirectional.
Gona be a lot of light loss due to that.

2 might be enough for veg , but you would want at least 5 of them in flower. It might be better to just use standard household LED bulbs with the globe cut off or buy a cheap board or some strips.

Ive got a light for flower and ur right its an eddison plug or mogul base. I have that under control and ive got enough sheet metal 2 build reflectors. I figure 20 watts would prolly b used the rest kinda wasted per light allthough i may tear one apart and see what i can do to change the layout. I also have a 1200watt (200watt actual draw) blurple i will prolly add as well. Problem is i have no clue what led chips they use but its white light so i was thining like 15watt /20 watts per sqft for veg. Just wanted 2 put em 2 use i guess if i could rather than spend 100-200$ lighting that tent.

If you got em, use em man. End of the day the blurple will be more than enough if the white corn cobs don't work out. :bigjoint:
