If you feed them a constant current of 2A and it's voltage is 32.. that's 64W...
So if I understand this correctly A x voltage = W?
Im lost, why does specification say output: 100W than?

Yes, ballasts and other mh related parts will go of course,, leaving just empty "tunnel" behind which would help to aerate, or at least I hope it would. Extra fans can be placed in there in vertical position if needed.. chamber is wide enough to fit pucks nicely

Second suggestion.. 3 pucks..
sounds cool, thx but I'll keep it simple this time..
