My big space is 9 x 9 81 sq ft with 13 autocobs from @BigSm0 totaling 780 watts so I'm running 9.6 watts per sq ft
 
My diy setup was a bit over 500 watts from the wall, with 9 square feet, so a bit more than 55 watts/square foot - too much as it turned out... With the screw in bulbs I was using, I figure that max for the plants I grew was somewhere in the neighborhood of 35-40 watts/sq ft, and then only with some distance between bulbs and plants. The plants would likely have been very happy at less than 30 watts/sq.ft.
 
1. Blacksailmarket “ Cannon”...240 w. Dimmable

30 inch by 32 inch closet...6.6 sq ft

36.36 wpsqft

Did 1 of my runs of 5 autos I pulled in a little over 13 ounces.

I have just added the red shift PCB to it

9.6 wow. That's a nice cheap bill considering the space! I run roughly 235-250 actual watts from qb in a 2x4x5. I dont see myself changing anything for a while. I like where I'm at.
