    What do you think of this setup:
    3 x Light stands
    3 x Dual T8 58W Fixtures with steel reflectors attached (el. ballast)
    6 x T8 58W 6500k Osram/Philips (5500k if I can find affordable ones) bulbs
    + some DIY to attach the light fixtures to stands and wire the mains plug so I can use them anywhere

    Total cost estimated €150. Light output 3 x 8000-10000lm depending on bulbs I can source.

    I could also go for T5 bulbs but then price increases. I am looking for affordable setup with low maintenance and since T8 surface is bigger they should cast less harsh shadows.
