Default 1W draw VS output...

Maybe a dumb question but is the 1W draw, different than the output of the LED?

Also what about my 2 T5's and these LEDS? Would that work?

No reason you can't supplement with other led strips or add more LEDs though if your of the creative kind , I should also note that just because you are doing softies don't mean less light is better you'd still want decent lighting
