i can't post links as yet but am wondering if something like this would suffice:

2 x 1000w halogen 3200k lamps
1 x silver umbrella
1 x translucent umbrella

interfit (don't know if they're know to all?) do a kit, ref no. INT191, that's the sort of thing i might go for if on-board is a waste of time.
That would light up your world for sure. However, if you can find some kind of kino flo like fluorescent lighting you might be happier. !K lights are like 1K heaters.....really hot. Kino or kino knock offs are great because you can get 5600K bulbs and balance them with incoming daylight so it gives you lots of light to play with without the risk of burning up blue gels etc. Have a look around.
