Typical recommended light is 400-500 watts per square meter. 1 square meter is really close to ten square feet.
2 600-watt lights seems appropriate.

Well the reason I ask is because I have 2 1000w in there now. I think it might be a little over kill. Thinking about buying a light mover and using just a 1000w. Anyone had any exp. with light movers? Will a 1000w on a light mover cover my area?

Well, if heat and electrical usage aren't a problem, and your plants aren't showing signs of burning, you'd probably be best off sticking with the two lights you have. If you're worried, you can always move them up higher, provided you have enough room. But I think that as long as you can deal with that much heat, your plants will do very well, and the increased electrical cost might even pay for itself.
