A coleman gas light with 3 mantles might equal 200w, a mirror wired on one side would direct light for the camera. An electric set up would cost alot more than colemans.

I most certainly did NOT write that.
new inverters are much more efficent, my best friend has 12 volt circuit thru home, he has a windmill.
he added a inverter at each light to power each CF light, the standard
120 volt ones.his power use dropped dramatically, 8 CFs on invereters less than one
50 watt incandescent.plus 12 volt CFs cost a fortune, 20 bucks each so dont drop them.
get a inverter, its useful for all sorts of stuff
Since CF bulbs don't take all that much power, wouldn't it make more sense to use one inverter, and run 110 volt modified sine to the various lights? Much less power line loss at higher voltages.
Sorry if it sounded as if you did. That was the only easy way for me to add to my prior message. I tried to make that clear, but apparently I did not do as well as I would have liked. Please accept my apology.
You can't apologize! This is usenet!
