If its all you got, it will work, just not as well as a good light will thats suited for the tent size. I use a 2x4 as well and run longer lights. That light is not pulling 2000W from the wall. all its led's have the potential to use 2000W but the driver won't deliver that. running led's at 100% will burn them out as well, its shit marketing to take advantage of people who don't know any better yet. Most good LED's run at 10-25% power and use multiples diodes for longevity and spectrum. Givene their light is purple their spectrum output is also way off. They are showing a output that is not their lamp. One amazon review said the light is only pulling 40W, another web page selling the light says it only consumes 200W, One way to find this out is by looking at the driver it should tell you what its rated for and what its converting it into. but an outlet monitor is best just kinda useless past its first use. Could also email them to find true wattage pulled if you would believe them. Return it if you can and get something else from a better brand. for similar amount of money. I have been using my Medic Grow mini sun 2 lights and they do well. I was sponsored by them so take my review with a grain of salt, but for a basic light with no fancy features they do well for the cost point. The guy on you tube who reviews lights "Migro" did a review on them and it went over well. Good Luck! Good Luck!

Your light is kinda dated and based on the old "blurple" technology. It's great for bringing out colors in plants but quantum boards are much more efficient. Also that light is nowhere close to 2000w, honestly it would be surprising if it was 200w. Many less reputable light manufacturers like to push wattage "equivalency" instead of true draw. Go by what it pulls from your outlet. It might work but your results will probably be lacking. You may consider including a couple bar style lights to supplement this light.

Hi growmie, Es ist jetzt nicht die beste Lampe aber für deine ersten grows wird die ausreichen. 2000w finde ich allerdings extrem viel. Ich habe ein 4x4 Zelt und verwende 480w. ( Mars Hydro 4800 Evo) Je nach dem wie groß du deine Töpfe wählst passen da entsprechend Pflanzen rein. Ich habe in meinem 4x4 Zelt vier Pflanzen in 19L Töpfen. Ich könnte aber auch 32 kleine Töpfe (See of Green) nehmen. In dein Zelt passen 1 - 16 Pflanzen rein würde ich sagen. Ich hoffe ich konnte dir weiterhelfen. Mein nächster grow wird auch eine autoflower.
