Something with approx 175 x 3 watt diodes should do the trick. 250-300 watts at the wall (again approx) and you will prob get at least as much yield if not more. Or 2 x 150 watters. I speak of wattage in 'actual' not rated/equiv, count the diodes and multiply by 1.6 to get a rough estimate.

How big is the grow area?
Late Saturday, I inserted 2 X 3ft BML Horticulture light bars to supplement my ~ 180w of UFO (3500/5000)
I am already seeing more growth below the canopy with lower leafs reaching up for the light (a good thing)
Each bar has 45 @ 3w diodes= 100w+ actual draw per bar
They also make a Spydr 600. At full spread it is 3 x 3 but covers a 4 x 4 area.
I am consulting on the spectrums, so it can be used for both veg and flower
