Hi all. Happy upcoming holidays. Currently growing two autoflowers in a 2x2x6 tent with one 125w COB LED 3500k light. So far, things are going incredibly well as they're in week 5 and starting to flower, but I was curious if I would at all benefit from another 125w COB that is 2700k spectrum? Is that complete overkill in the space I have? Would that hurt my plants more than help? Would really appreciate the help here!
Two 125w COB LEDs in one 2x2 tent - overkill?

I guess it depends. Are they true 125w draw? If so then yes that's probably too much light unless you can dim them.

Autocobs are 65w each.. I have 8 of them. 2 in a 2x2 would be a bit much unless you can keep 'em about 30" above the canopy.
I run 650 watts over a 4x4.... mine are bar style lights.. so the spread is more even than a COB... but sure you can... if you need to and your height allows you can move them up.. I do see your a bit vertically challenged at 6 feet... up to a point .. more light equals bigger denser buds father down into the canopy... that’s my thoughts.. good luck to you.

Not hot as in temps, but burn from the light
Ahh got it. Surprisingly it's working well so far no indication of light stress.
