I did not really want to get several smaller lights because I have heard you get higher yields from more intense lighting. Advice?
Yes more yield from more intense lighting.. but raising the light will decrease intensity and intensity will decrease as you progress outward from the focal point. I have no experience with 1k lights, but the exact same question was asked over at cannabisworld. Here is the link

The gist being that the higher amount of coverage was favorable to a directly more intense light.
