I’m going to be moving my veg/cloning area to a smaller tent, I’m going to put 2 1000 watt LEDs into the 4x4 for flowering. The goal is two have 2 flowering tents, and one veg tent, all perpetual with a harvest every month

I am confused by the numbers, are you talking about 2 kilowatts out of the wall or “equivalent watts” some LED manufacturers like to refer to?

Depending on the manufacturer that could be anything from 100w to 450w out the wall.
To get an equivalent to 1000w HPS you want something around 450W + out of the wall. Don’t believe what it says on the advertisement especially if they are coming from China.
2 real 1000w equivalent LEDs will be too much light in a 4x4.
If you have some DIY skills check out this thread. Save some money and get some decent light coverage.

Hey Shadey,
Each unit draws 115 actual from the wall, this is my first time with LEDs , and from the brief research I’ve done I believe the 2 lamps will provide decent coverage. The ones I got are called Likesuns.

Should be ok for a 4x4 tent, 115w out of the wall will probably be 15w to run the fans and 100w for the lights X2 wil be somewhere around equivalent to a 400 HPS/HID light.
I have a Chinese blurple light that says 240w out the wall, when I took it apart to clean it, it only had 2x50w drivers for the lights and 15w for the fans. So you never really know what you have until you look inside them. I think yours will be correct, I can’t imagine they would go less than that in a light.
