Do a forum search! Search for xenons or hyper white. Also checkout TimmyC230Boy's lightning FAQ. It's a great source!

Good luck!

To see the Lighting FAQ, click on the blue highlighted text in the post above your second post.

The reason you only got this thread in your search is because it should be spelled xenon, not xeon.

Also, there is a lot of information about lighting at this site
