I really want to make one. But I cant find clear directions. I need one large enough to cover an 8x4x8 tent and the 15 that will be in it. so i may need to build two, but i need help

I want to use an LED(a nice one) because of the true full spectrum and low heat. And my guide(shaman) has a sister that makes true full spectrum LED's that should sell for two to three grand. But they sell them for cheaper. I dont want to ask them how, because they are trying to make money for their family that way. But They sell them for a grand. and they use the 3w led's. so, i know it is cost effective for them, so im sure I can do it too. My room mate is an electrition. I really just want to know how to arrange the lights and all the technical aspects. And maybe a list of supplies. I'm down to spend up to 500 to make a light that is equivelant to over two 1000W HID lights. It is well worth it to me. If I could make two for under 800 I would be extremely happy

Thank you for the advise everyone. I'll just use 1000k MH and HPS lights for now. I will still build an LED, but just for kicks. I wont spend a lot of time with it and when/if i finish it, ill just test it out on one plant just to see. prolly months down the road. Thanks again!
