I can easily do it to give me just over 1000w total with the HPS directly overhead and the T5s angled in around the perimeter.
I don't think you will be disappointed Chromo. I do think the combination of the two could be a winner. I feel in my case it was just not enough watts with the little HPS to be a fair comparison. I just can't deal with the heat from more wattage so the little HPS is done.
They do look just a little different though, just enough to make me ponder....
