Gardening under lights [View all]

I would like some feed-back on a system like one of these to provide supplemental light to my high-light requiring plants:

There's this one:
http://www.amazon.com/Hydrofarm-JSV2-2-Foot-Start-System/dp/B0006856EQ/ref=sr_1_3?s=lawn-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1416888861&sr=1-3&keywords=grow+light

and this one:
http://www.amazon.com/Hydrofarm-JSV4-4-Foot-Start-System/dp/B0001XLSGQ/ref=pd_sim_lg_4?ie=UTF8&refRID=12QM7NJ9QZE1FCZMHA24

Both have only one tube, from what I've been reading, two tubes are preferable, but I am trying to find something affordable.
And I just want to keep my plants alive over the winter, I don't have the resources to get a very elaborate system.

These 2 seem to be the best I have found after some research.
If anyone has any other ideas, I'd be glad to hear them.

thanks!
