Your LED lights will work better with the plastic dome removed and re-positioned so they are pointing down at the plants.

Beginning at post # 1303 in this thread are instructions on taking the bulbs apart to remote mount the chip set from the driver to conserve space and better get rid of heat:

ok so I took off one of the 4 domes (pics make it look way easier). Why does it look like it is the same amount of light as before I took off the dome.

Give a read at the beginning of the thread I referred you to and you will find tests done with dome off vs on that clearly show better light at greater distance with dome off.

because they still emit the same amount of light (there are losses but ok) just not in 360 direction anymore, now its all directed to your plants
because the light in directed to the floor and not your eyes, you might even think it gives less light, but its just reflecting (lost into space, not used by plant) more light away from the plant
