 Anyone have experience with PL light systems?

Thinking about getting three or four 600w HPS systems in a 4'x6' area w/ 65 degree midi reflectors or 60 degree not sure I know the higher the angle, the greater the penetration into the canopy but more distance from the canopy and a smaller are of coverage for the same watt system and vice versa, I like the idea of having multiple angled reflectors and choosing based on how tall or short I may want to veg any particular strain I may desire. When I first decided I wanted to grow indoors, I was intrigued by water cooled light because of the advertised efficiency and light bonuses. After more thought, I wondered how the light could be evenly distributed if they are so close. Do you wonder the same thig, or do you know? Either way lemme know what you think.
If you have PLs, do you like them? what wattage's do you use and in what space and what reflector? If you have the air cooled hoods designed for them, how effective are the hoods at cooling? What are the average temps with them on, whats ambient temp in the room before they are on and so on, thanks for any help.

As far as the water cooled lights go a good friend uses them and they are pretty killer. More then just getting the lights closer the fans don't have to run as often or if someone wanted added to increase overall venting in the grow room itself.
