Ive also got these 2 PL Light NXT2's kicking around, maybe i should just get 2x more DEva's and run 4x of these DE's at about 600w each. get a cheap 240v light timer and call it done... still ive only got 7' ceilings down in the basement, not sure if these DE's at 600w will fry my canopies...

well, I will probably run 4 plants in each 4x4 area. the buckets are probably 12" tall so that leaves 6' from top of bucket to bottom of tent. the lights will take up the top 1' so thats 5' from top of bucket to bottom of light.... if I give myself 30-36 inches from canopy to light bottom this gives me 2' to 2.5' from the top of the bucket to scrog the canopy down...

that's gonna be tight ... you probably will have to train them hard down ...weave them constantly vertically thru the scrog

Got any links to your setup? How much space do you have from your light to canopy? You have your 1000de set to 1000w?
Iam rocking 8 Gavita 6/750's in my main room in the basement. 7 ft and change from bulb to basement floor. I absolutely cannot run anything taller than a 30 inch plant. And that's pushing it. But I just train them. Low and wide bushes. Wish I had another foot or 2. I pretty much keep them on the 600 watt setting. Gavita double enders are a whole different ball game compared to traditional mogul socket HID lamps.

I'll have 7ft internal tent dimensio. The bulbs will probably be at 6ft from basement floor
Your attempting to cram a double ended hps in a tent? Regular 6 to 7 foot high tent? How you gonna keep it cool in there?

Exhaust into the open basement. Basement will pull air in from one window passive and exhaust out a window on the other side

If I can keep it around 81-82 I'll be happy. I haven't gone through a Maine summer yet but.I think it.stays fairly cool at night.so I'll be running lights on in flower during the night
I'm running a Gavita 1000w DE in an 8 x 4 tent. I was having heat issues, until I ported a 10 000 btu portable AC directly into the tent. Now temps are fine and plants are thriving. They're big plants as well. Most are around the 5ft mark.
