From my encounters with both, the issue between an air cooled HPS and a COB led fixture is that the hps is undoubtedly hotter but can be air cooled and ducted away/out of the room. The led puts off far less heat than the hps but there isnt any available setup for ehxausting/venting the heat directly from the led units which in turn makes your ac work more. Now on the flip side to that, the power I save using led vs hps offsets the AC power usage. Its really an "economical catch 22" really.
You think 12000 btus will work hard to co 1350w of cobs?

Not if your room is set up properly/ finished. Lots of factors come into play. What seasons/temps are you growing in? Will there be a dehumidifier contributing to the heat? Is your room insulated? Is your room sealed good? Etc. Etc.

I grow in the basement, ambient temps from 62-68f night to day. I run at night. It's not a sealed room. Just a framed up panda-film deal with zipper doors. I only grow from fall through to spring. Pretty cool up here north of 49. Ya... have a dehuey...

Being in the basement with consistant temps in those ranges, I'd imagine you should be just fine with good air exchange to run some leds.

Yo bro! Is this indoor or outdoor grow?

What kind of nutes you using to jack then=m beeiotchees up with? Wild.
What's wild is the genetics - this is my own cross (Incredible Bulk x OG Chronic) x (Star Dawg x Gorilla Glue 4) and yes was grown outdoor. My previous picture was indoor (Berry White). I grow indoor and out simultaneously. To jack these bitches up, I only use 1 part Jack's. No other snake oil. I don't buy into pretty pictures and fancy labels on nutrient bottles.
