Same here you got the cash, so hit the girls with more light get a couple 1000W HPS and some kick ass Raptor Air Cooled Hoods and get a fan ( about 500 CFM or better) to keep those bad boys cool, get yourself some lumatek or Phantom ballasts.

thank i got 2 1000 in there right now no mover and the plants in the corner arnt getting as much light. the room is 48 square foot and with 2000 watts that's 42 watts per SF
I was just thinking with 6 600w lights i could spread the light out a little better and 3600w would give me 75 watts per SF

only draw back to 600's in this scenario is having 6 hoods in such a small space. 4 in my 8 x 11 are hard to get around. I stood up the other night and put my head right into a hood. If that fixture was 3 inches lower I would have head butted the bulb.
