Best type LED for a 5x8?

I currently use 2-480’s in about same size space but a buddy is building a new flower room that will be 5x8 and I figured there is probably a bar style light that will fill this space and have perfect coverage and penetration. The budget is pretty much whatever it takes to get the right light for the job so I just want some options on what everyone feels would fill this space adequately and perform good. Thank you

I know what diodes and drivers he needs just not up to date on latest tech for that space.

I don't know of anything that will cover the 8 foot part, 5 ft. yes. Probably going to need 2 lights, minimum. I run about 1100 true watts in a 6x6 ft. and it works fine, just turn the plants every week or so, however I have three lights, the main light is an HLG rspec 550W, and two the other lights are older (3-4 years old) Bestva 285 watt with veg/bloom lights that I use around the edges.

These are good for building out an unusual sized space. I'm running 2 x Aray 3's for a 6 x 2 but they are modular so you can mix and match to get perfect coverage for the space
