Hey GPS, thank you for the reply. I made a serious typo on my number that you re-posted, sorry about that.

I am getting two light kits. Each light kit is four feet long, and has 8 bulbs. Each kit puts out 400 watts (40,000 lumens at 6500k). I would assume that's 50 watts per bulb.

Essentialy with both light kits running, there will be 16 total lights equaling 800 watts (80,000 lumens) that can be raised or lowered. My area that I am setting up as a testbed display is 3 feet deep, 5 foot high, and 8 feet long.

It's hard to say if that amount of light is sufficient, but I know your experience, and I trust it based upon your history. As this is my first setup, its definitely going to be an interesting experience. I do however want to make it clear that I respect, and listen to all advice given.
