Do you think it'd fuck up the current spectrum put out by my 450w, or vice versa?

You will grow more bud for the same amount of money spent on electricity... When you consider the lifespan of led... It really makes sense to make the investment in a quality light.

OD Green is stubborn......I like stubborn people.This is what I was trying to tell you all along when I was knocking those viper spectra my friend

He's not as stubborn as some I've met, but they eventually all "see the light"

I don't really understand the question.

Like, would either spectrum potentially conflict?

This is the question you must ask yourself...perhaps the conflict lies within you.

I don't see how they would conflict... As i dont really see the use of using a substandard light when clearly we have established there are better options.
However if you insist on still using it with your good lights I can't see how they could "conflict". Aside from one light creating unessesary heat and expense that's unneeded.

Listen man, conflict is an animal contruct in a cold and lifeless universe. It will be fine, light is happy to hang out with other light, chill, smoke a bowl, make out, whatever.

It's all photons, as far as that goes.
Regarding the question, when I came up with the idea for my lamps the idea was to fit all the common tent sizes with enough light to really turn the plants on in flower. The T1 doesn't really factor into that in a flowering sense but it was necessary to complete the line and it's a good size for a 2x2 veg, one mom, a replacement and some clone space. It's about 460 PPFD in a 2x2. If you flower in that space there is the potential for 4 zips or a little more with a healthy plant/s. OTOH, a T2-2100 in the same space will provide about 920 PPFD and should be able to handle 60 grams per foot since I have achieved similar using a PPFD of around 790. My results were in hydro but I'm far from a master grower. I could advertise the T1 with a 2x2 flowering footprint. It wouldn't be different from a lot of the claims out there and you can get good results with lower PPFD, but I won't.
You can see my recommendations on the main page of the website. You can get excellent results with lower PPFD but my attempt has been to get the PPFD up closer to 1000 because I know most people are dealing with limited space and want to get as much as possible from it. This keep my lamps from being "cheap" but you get what you pay for. I'm not trying to gouge out a massive profit. Small companies like mine don't get the same price discounts a large company would, but I try to keep prices reasonable.

I have a 4x2' closet. My ViparSpectra covers a 2.5x2.5 core, but 3x3 altogether. Do you think the two lights combined, if my current light is covering 2, actually 2 big and one small plants, do you think I can max out at 4? That's really all I give a shit about.
