QUICK QUESTION FOR ALL GROWERS

Better option for a 2ft x 8ft closet.
2 x 400W lights stationary
600W light on a rail.
Which is better? I'd be inclined to go with the 600W for penetrational power, but the 400's might cover better

haha fair enough.
Any particular reasons for that?

Anybody else? going to be placing an order in the next hour or two.
I'm thinking the 600W penetrates better which is nice, but the 2 x 400W have 200 extra watts which should more than compensate for the loss of penetration, plus the plants will spend more time directly under the light which is another plus.

ok word, valid points. I suppose I should clarify real quick- This debate is specifically for this closet though, no chance of moving the light somewhere else, no chance of anything, just debating which light will give you a better yield in that particular closet. Does that change your answer in any way?
Thanks for dropping by

Nope, ordering tomorrow morning.
This isn't for my setup anyway, I own a custom indoor agritech installation company and sunday we start construction for a new client.
That's just a fancy way for me to say I build grow rooms for people and then charge them

No man, by all means ask as many questions as you want, hopefully you'll ask something I haven't thought of and you'll save me a huge headache later on.
But the simple answer to this question is that the closet has doors. from the doors it's only 2 feet to the back of the closet, and since the doors are 6 feet wide he can touch every wall in the entire space without ever setting foot inside the grow space.
I think you're picturing the closet a little off... shift your perception of where the door is by 90 degrees
