Viparspectra led for 1.5 x 1.5 tent

2 x SF 2000 or 1x SF 4000 IMO will do as good as a 1000w hps not to mention half the power consumption. Add the cost of bulb replacement and potentially extra cooling needed i think the Quantum board ends up far cheaper before too long..   I can fill 8x4 tent with 2 x SF 4000. That's 900w draw and far less heat.. I would need two 1000w HPS drawing 2000w and enough heat to need AC full time. Harvest would be roughly the same.  

 

The upfront cost is worth it because i can grow more without increasing the power bill. Don't want to draw any attention with suspiciously high usage.

2 x 1000w HPS for an 8x4 tent?

Please explain how 900 watts power draw is 1/2 the power draw of 1000 watt hps
