Studio Strobe Lighting Kits
What is a nice or two strobe Head Set for under $ 500?

I am an absolute idiot when it comes to lighting ... There could be a impossible request, but can anyone find me a deal for a light kit that one or two lights for under $ 500? lol I'd also like to be kind of portable ... or at least one portable ... Does that mean I have to buy something extra like a battery pack and / or transceivers or what? As I said ... RIDICULOUSLY am ignorant of the parameters of a lighting system. It would also be necessary to purchase radio transmitters for my camera and lights? lol It might be better if my question as well: all that I need if I needed two lights that were totally without wires if they were needed? " like something one could take place etc, but also work well in a study of ...? and how much would it cost? links to specific kits / games are very useful ... thanks!

A place to check is http://www.alienbees.com Even two of its B400 units without the battery will last $ 500. If you want to start cheap and portable, try looking at has to say about http://www.strobist.com off-camera lighting. A lot of people there use in camera flashes, but used outside the chamber either with a sync cable or a wireless trigger.
