Yeah why are you putting a tent inside the closet?

you can get one thats 2x4x5 thats what i got and use a cooltube. With a 400w i have heat issues but if you can add ac you'll be fine. If you keep the outside room at 70F the tent will be about 80-85F with adequate-good ventilation and if you add a canopy fan you'll be able to have the plants about 6" from the light. 600w is a little much but with a dimmable ballast you cant go wrong. Ebay, local hydro, and htg supply are all excellent places to look.
im feeling selfish right now and dont wanna give up my lumens by dimming my ballast

Another good idea is put your bed on stilts and maybe put the tent under the bed. Another one is put your bed in the tent and grow in the room.

I built a enclosed closet in my closet roughly 3.5x2x5. Running a 600 watt digital ballast, 4" vortex with a 6" vent cooled yield master. I vented it up and out through the attic. I alternate the intake coming from the outside and from within the house. Depending. My temps stay in the 72-85 range with a RH between 20-50%. Space wise its a little tight but I got 3, 3 gallon pots in her.
yea i got to thinking ....i should just build one....it would be so much cheaper
