So I'm 75% of the way to having all the lighting equipment I'll ever need until February. Through a fairly fortunate discovery, I found 5 Speedotron Blackline 202VF heads, 5 cables, a bunch of reflectors, and a 405 pack for $1200 from a studio in California. I also purchased an Innovatrix Tronix Explorer XT SE (now that's a mouthfull) to power this stuff on location.
All I really need now is more power packs. The 405 isn't quite strong enough for day time, so I'm eyeing two 1005 1000w/s power packs. That way I'll have 3 power packs and a total of 2400w/s as needed. I mean, 400w/s will be more than enough on some shoots.
My third concern, that I can remember anyways, is being able to carry all this stuff. It normally retails for about $330, but I found what appears to be a new one for $150. It is supposedly an excess purchase from a photographer in Bel Air. Hopefully they still have it and will sell it to me.
