If it were me, I'd try and make something home made that copies the coliseum.
Growing on shelves, maybe 5 shelves, 5 plants to a shelf.
Each shelf, maybe 3 feet long.
5 or 6 units, to make an octagon, 2 1000 watt lights down the center....

I have a friend who is a super of a condo, and he was telling me about these lights they are using to light the whole side of the 18 floor building... 5000 watt hps spot lights!!! I am thinking about going to his work and cutting that light right off the building, Cuz I don't know where to get one.

Have you done to max out your reflectivity? Painted walls flat white and ceiling? Do you have a light mover that might cut out the need for extra light at least sooooo much of it.

i think a light mover with the 1k might be what you need unless you feel like just spending a bunch of money.

keep away from those, rather splilt wattage over several lights then one single one. mover because they have an electrical motor in it - motors break amd electical tings burn. so please don't do it.

The high quality and rock-solid dependability you have come to expect from the Light Rail line of light movers now has the added flexibility of customized light distribution. The advanced Light Rail 3.5 Intelli-Drive motor circuit board technology enables your customer to program the delay timer at the end of the rail to pause from 0 - 60 seconds.
Check out this product out and decide for yourself. Better yet do a product review for unibiased info.
The Light Rail 3.5 moves along a 6' linear track and takes about 2 minutes to get from one side to the other. Perfect for getting the most out of your lighting system. Enables growers to place the light closer to plants for higher light intensity and more even plant growth. This is the premier light mover on the market today.
