Thank you GPS. The lights did not cost me anything (swapping for sidework that take me an hour at most), so I went ahead and put the second request in for two sets of these based upon what you stated. Your a wealth of information GPS, many thanks. I tend to like to ready and study what others do, and then learn from it as I set it up.

The twin setup would essentially put me at 80,000 lumens, or 800 watts to start. I suspect that would be sufficient.
