I have multiples of these in regular light fixtures:
SANSI Grow Light Bulb with COC... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07BRKT56T?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
I also have one large Soltech Solutions track light - it’s very attractive and works super well, but was quite $$$.
Also curious about this, going to tag /u/MeatyJonesTheRapper to see if he's got any thoughts on it.
In a post asking about a 100W COB/Quantum board, he said that it'd be too much light for a bucket build. Then the ChilLED he recommended is a 64W bulb according to this report, but he still recommends using it at only 25-50% capacity.
Therefore, what I'd determine is that you only really need a 16-32W bulb for a bucket build, which would mean the ones you've linked should be fine. Link for 24W and link for 36W, but I'd really like to get his thoughts on it since he seems really well-versed in all of this stuff whereas I'm just trying to draw conclusions from what I'm finding.
I'm also a little confused on the driver vs power supply thing. I'm wondering if there's a pre-assembled version of these higher quality lights available in the lower wattage that a bucket grower would need?
EDIT: Also curious about this Canagrow 35W LED which appears to be pretty much made for this application, if you have any thoughts.
EDIT 2: I found a pretty insane review of the Canagrow which has increased my confidence in the little 35W lightbulb, enough so that I'll probably be throwing that in my build whenever I get around to it.
For anyone curious, these are the steps I took that I believe helped get the plant to where it’s at:
1) 24-hour light. As the plant grew I’d add another lamp with a bulb pointing directly at each of the large leaves from 12”~ away. These are the bulbs I use: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07BRKT56T
2) 50% potting soil and 50% pumice. I’ve found that doing this improves drainage tremendously and I suspect that helping get air to the roots also helps the plant. These are the soil and pumice that I use: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HXOI3U0, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07QG3M9FF.
3) use a pot with a drainage hole and repot relatively frequently, before the plant gets rootbound. I used terracotta until I couldn’t find pots large enough because my goal was to help the soil dry out as quickly as possible.
4) water twice a week when small (6” pot or less) and slow to 1x a week as the plant fills out an 8”-10” pot. Once I put the plant into a 14.5” pot the watering frequency slowed to every 10-14 days or so. I used a basic hygrometer to give me an idea how moist the soil was. I wouldn’t water until the soil was dry as deep as the hygrometer would measure. Soak the soil with water and allow to drain thoroughly.
5) fish emulsion fertilizer, once a month or so. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00RLWOK3I
It’s worth noting that I believe doing all of this will result in the plant growing so fast that it’ll become rootbound regardless of the size of pot you put it into. I repotted mine from a 10” pot to a 14.5” pot in August 2021 and within 4-6 months it became sufficiently rootbound to start yellowing and then browning the tips of all of the older leaves on the plant. The new leaves are still healthy as are the newest 2-3 leaves, so my plan is to cut the stem of the plant after the newest 3 leaves and separate the roots. I’ll probably separate the remaining nodes and see if I can get any large leaves to grow from them. Going forward I will do this periodically since my goal is to have a plant with only a few giant leaves and not a huge bush that takes up half of a room.
In years past I have grown my VFTs under this light with good results:

I gradually lowered the light over a few months until it was only 8in from the light.
I like this one for my monstera
I use a variety of bulb style lights to great effect. My go to brand is sansi. Not suber bargain basment price but not too expensive and compatible with any standard lightbulb fitting. I prefer full spectrum for easthetic and growth rerasons.

Another thing thet REALLY helps is using a reflective material around your setup to contain and bounce the light back on your plants. Delivering the light to your plants is just as important as what light you use.
