500 watt output flourescent light!?
Actually those lights you bought look like a CFL, or a flourex...not sure the difference. They will not work very well for a 4x4 area. probably a 2x2 area with baby plants. It probably wont be enough for more than one adult plant.
A cheap route for bigger area would be to go to a hardware store and find the cheapest tube flourescent fixture that is 4ft and holds a couple lights. I've seen the "shop fixture" at ACE which holds 2 4-ft T12 bulbs for $10. Spend another $10 on a couple of cool white lights and you'll have around 5,000-6000 lumens for $20. Get two of these setups side by side and you got your 4x4 area with 10-12000 lumens.
