I'm seriously humbled by the effort you have taken to help me out, and for all the sources! I've read about all the issues you posted and armed with that information I'm going to move forward with the upgraded version of that Maxxisun light (MAXSISUN PB2000 Pro). My only regret is that of my tent size, but my oldest is in his last year of school and is planning on moving away... so a room is opening up! But for now I've got my odd sized tent.
Before I move forward, if I might ask, do you think my choice of tent is a good one? Regarding the size, I could put in a 2x2 instead of the odd 20"x36". I was thinking the extra usable space with 12 more inches of length would be more valuable then the square shape that only has 4 more inches width.
