ViparSpectra P600 or P1000?

I'm just starting with a small setup (40x40x100cm tent), only one small plant at the time, but want to be able to grow proper quality in long-term. I suppose the biggest difference between the two lights is the 930 vs 1006 umol/m2/s? Any advise appreciated!

The p1000 allows you to move the heatsink outside of your small tent, a massive benefit over the LEDs with a powersupply hardmounted to the board of LEDs, Them being cheaper probably also means less efficient, resulting in more heat being put out. with the p600 all this heat ends up in your tent, a benefit in the cold winter, but in the hotter months you will be fighting both the heat from mother nature and the heat from your Viperspectra, with the more expensive model you can just move the heat producing parts of the light outside of your tent.

More is better. It's easier to turn down a light if needed then to want more you can't produce.

The lights can be found here: P600: https://viparspectra.co.uk/products/p600-95w-cover-2-5x2-5ft-built-in-dimmer-infrared-led-grow-light-full-spectrum-for-indoor-plants P1000: https://viparspectra.co.uk/products/p1000-100w-cover-2-5x2-5ft-built-in-dimmer-infrared-led-grow-light-full-spectrum-for-indoor-plants I suppose I might as well spend the extra money on the P1000, and then have the ability to dim the light if I'd need less (for energy consumption reasons and keeping the plant relatively small). It will also give me some more room to experiment with light intensity. Either way, anyone that is able and willing to provide any thoughts is very welcome :) thank you
