    ok what is the best place to find these 3200 Kelvin incadecent bulbs that everyone says are a cheap lighting fix. I was under the impression that they are hard to find these days because of their short life. I have found a few for my old smith victor lightbar on ebay but that is it. Where are you guys getting your bulbs at?

    Thanks
    Brian

    The best lights for shooting cheap, and the best deals, are the 650 PAR watt movie lights. (the ones' that look like car headlights).
    There are millions of them on ebay, and they go from $1.00 up.
    New, they sell for $40.00.
    If you bid say under $6.00 or so each, you can get lots of them.
    My favorites are the "Lotta-Lite" brand. Those are harder to find though, and more money (same bulb, just nicer housing).
    Just get the generic ones. They're cheaper.
    Go to ebay and put in "650" and "light" in the search field, and a bunch of them will pop up.
    They last a really long time, but don't bump them, because those filaments are hot, and will instantly break.

    Is this the same thing just with a 350 watt bulb or is the housing different for the 650 watt ones?
