Another option is to purchase a Kill-a-watt, and test the lamp.

Many LED lights are legitimately labeled for the combined wattage of all diodes, but then are only driven at a fraction. (probably how they get away with it).

If that lamp is actually 150w total, you may want to back off on power a bit while your plants acclimate.
