1000w HPS would be ideal. A 600w would work but you could do 1000w.

If you go led i would go with something like this.

I have a 400 watt led (2000 watt advertised) in my 4x4 tent whuch is basically the same size. Will it work? Absolutely! Might you be disappointed? Possibly. Depends on the purpose of your grow. Did ok for me for personal use.

I quickly realized I wanted/needed more. Pretty sure every grower goes through that I'd suppose. I do agree with JoeBlow with the HLG though. However, I personally believe that the 600h kit is a far better deal. Sure, you have to assemble it yourself but I know nothing about lights and built it with 0 issue.

You need to be looking for wattage draw from the wall. Most of these LED companies severely overrate their products.

100 percent agree. The kit just just ran cheaper and had more wattage which is why I got it. The one you linked is a plug and play and has a 3 year warranty over the kit's 1 year. Pros and cons:)

Hay man been running 1.2x1.2 for awhile in NZ. Did you get a light if your still looking I may be able to help. Mh and HPS local cheapish love em in winter hate them in summer.
Led I wouldn't buy what's currently on offer in NZ I have before and I won't again until the market charges. You can get better LEDs overseas for the same price if not cheaper.

Bugdet and what you want to achieve will help determine what will work best for you.
