I have a extra tent set up that stays 66 degree and a humidity around 40 percent. I’m thinking of moving my one flowering plant to that tent. My issue is the light power. Here is what I have…. Think it is enough to push my one small auto thorough flower? It’s at week 3 currently

Whether you have much chance will depend on the size of your tent. I would say zero likelihood in a larger tent than a 2x2, and not great results in a 2x2. 60 blurple watts in 4 square feet is 15 blurple watts/square feet, about half what I would say is appropriate.
If I were you, and you are using a 2x2 tent, I would go for a dimmable ~100 watt QB type with white up to date spectrum, you will get better results. If you already own the light you mention, it will keep your plant alive, but not yield as well as a better light in my opinion. If you want to cut back the cost a bit, you could even go with DIY screwins. One of these with screw ins with globes removed will do a decent job of a single plant in a 2x2 or slightly smaller space:

Seven "100watt" screwins in one of these fittings will give you ~84-105 watts, depending on the bulbs, of white light for less than $100. Some of the so called 100 watt bulbs are actually close to 15 watts each from the wall, others less. I use one of these adapters with screwins for my isolated pollen plants. You can modify spectrum by changing the ratio of 2700K/5500K bulbs. Have a look at my current grows to see how screwins can work. No doubt higher cost lights can do better, but screwins grow nice weed just fine.
Good luck with it.
