Any suggestions
I think you could grow one small plant with that light, probably better to use two of those lights for one medium size plant or better yet...return it for something much better.
Use the HID lights, return the LED or keep the LED for extra lighting where you need it. I'm not going to design your room for you. I recommend you learn a bunch about the plants and growing, come up with a rough plan, then come back here to see what folks think. Maybe someone here will walk you through everything but until then...read everything in the link below. www.growweedeasy.com
LEDs are new to me HIDS are not my tread What you think about my soon to be setup I need to have a recorded the lighting house i got everything else
Epistar leds? If you want to step into the led world buy one with quality components. That one looks like a disappointment. When you see "double chips" look elsewhere. There isn't any quality led panels that use those terms. Get a 4 pack of qb132 boards. 4 of them is about 300 watts total. The light in your link is 130 watts at the wall. If you consider that the qb's diodes are probably 50% more efficient the 4 pack of boards is going to easily be 3-4 times the light output. Here's a power supply for all 4 boards in parallel. https://www.arrow.com/en/products/lrs-350-36/mean-well-enterprises Buy those and you won't be sorry.
That 4 pack will bloom a 3x3 or a 2x4. If you want to fill a 4x4 or slightly larger you'll need two 4 packs. Each 4 pack is 300 watts. Two would be 600 total. I bloom my 4x4 with 570 watts of the same leds.

Yes sir. You can run a different driver if you want dimming capability but it will cost you 2-3 times as much for the driver and it probably won't run the boards at full power just because of the way current and wattage numbers line up with meanwell HLG series drivers. That parallel driver will run super cool because it will be 50 watts below capacity and it's under $30.
You can just hang the boards with 9" trout leaders from each corner. Put a ratcheting hanger on each one. Then you can move them apart or together or run them at different heights. If you want more of a complete fixture make a rectangle out of 1" angle aluminum then screw the boards to it and put a hanger on each corner. No heat sinks, lenses, or other hardware needed for these. I just hang the boards. It's the cheapest way to go. You can see some of mine in the top of the picture.
Nice man really good info on boards Tanks now i just got to figure out I want a dimmable one so differnt power supple right jsut searching for board and power supplyes right now any good places you recomend as i live in canada?
This is recommended for 4 in series by HLG but it will run them about 250mA less then the driver I linked. You will have a dimmer pot on the driver with one of these though. It will drop the max output to about 250watts. https://www.arrow.com/en/products/hlg-240h-c1750a/mean-well-enterprises This is an HLG series driver that runs up to 320 watts you can wire in parallel and it will run the boards at full power. It's $74 though. It also has a dimmer on the driver. https://www.arrow.com/en/products/hlg-320h-36a/mean-well-enterprises You can see why I linked the other one. It's way cheaper. I'll tell you what I have two fixtures with drivers that have dimmers but I never use them. I always run my lights at full power and just raise them up to reduce output for smaller plants.
Check out the alternative to qb boards thread in the lighting section. There's a couple of Canadians building with boards out of China that are cheaper and seem to be legit.
I run 2 of those supplies and they DO have a little dimming ability..Just enough for me, as I run these at 2000ma (full rated power)
