Small grow - Newbie

Hey guys, i'm new to this amazing forum and need your opinion on some led light that i've had in the house.
I've always loved growing all kinds of plants-mainly hot peppers(outside, never done indoors), and found this led light bulb that I had at home, and had to experiment with it!
Over the past weeks i've made a small growing place(empty computer shell) and grown a few plants(pepper and cockscomb flower) - i've made a comparison to see if the light is good- flowers I planted outside, and the ones inside the computer(all from seed same age), and the indoor ones grew a hell of a lot faster and fuller.
So I want to do a small project with this light and grow a plant.
I can't spend much(nearly nothing), and don't expect ounces of buds.

I want to build a small growing closet(out of wood I guess) at about 1m tall and 0.5m x 0.5m(maybe slightly bigger), and grow 1-Maybe 2 plants. For now I have 2 of these led bulbs(around 16$ for pair)- 12W(equivalent to 75W is what the box says), 6000K(Day light), 1150Lumen, 210deg beam angle.
now for such a small closet, I assume this will be enough for starters at least?
I need your opinion and maybe some tips if you have any for my small project.
Very appreciated!
 
I would go for 60W min. and for bloom warm white ~2700k
So 4 more 12W and some fan as exhaust.
Keep a look a temps to not go over 85F.

For start and the fist weeks that 2 should do.
