I have used dual cannister lights (very heavy and you can search my old post to see the setup), a single Sola light (the switch is a real pain but only used it twice) and the BigBlue video lights. I'll stick with the BB lights. I know the maker of UWLD and he is a friend, but I simply cannot afford them. The UWLD lights are some of the best I have ever seen but there is a price point that I cannot justify while raising a family. Did you know that BB sells additional lens that can change the lights from 90 degrees to 120 degrees to include a yellow lens cap?

Yes, canister lights also present issues for travel. I was after the most powerful and smallest package available. Hence, the Bigblue lights.
The Bigblue video lights I use are already 120 degrees (originally 2800, now 5800; the 15K lights I use are 160 degrees).
 
Thanks for the input all ... I ended up ordering the BigBlue tray set up. I will follow up and let everyone know how it is as soon as I get it.
