Cheers Andy

Thanks for clearing that up for me cocogrower and ratdog,I already have the 80cm version so saves me buying the 100cm version as this is going to be my last run with the 600w as im downsizing tent and lamp next time,cheers.

You lose around 30-40 cm. In a 1.2m space it would be very very tight.

You don't really lose anything because you can get the plants right up.

they both sat 1000w as they both use the same boody/baseplate/cable there is no reason why you couldnt run a 600w/1000w in there the only problem would be the light spred

peace out farmer boy
