Default Time to choose my lights, any advice?

I am from the old school, harder way of walking to gig our flounder years ago. I now have my Jon, on a very nice trailer and its time for me to purchace my light to use. We always made our lights out of wood sticks and mounted a 12"x12" 5/8" plywood on it and rigged a DC socket and tried to find the brightest bulbs they made and it floated on top of the gulf water. I have been reading a lot of you guys reviews on going to a generator for Halogens. I guess I am asking, what is the average weight of the 2k's you are refering to and will it light up the bottom better shining into the water or actually being where the bulb in submersed? Man, we used to light that gulf up like a swimming pool! It was great! It prob also has a lot to do with the color of the bottom I'm sure. Do you think its safe to buy the clamp on ones that coonect to a bigger deep cycle or go with the generator? Thanks guys!

Gig'm when ya can!

Can't wait!:hungry
