What to bring on the Plane? at DVinfo.net

Leaving on a short-notice trip tomorrow morning to Cleveland. Product is simple - a couple of short interviews to be shot in 2 corporate office locations. Head and shoulders, nothing fancy. I'm traveling alone and would like to keep things to 2 cases plus my carry on (w/ the camera).

It's late and I'm zonked after today so I need some help deciding what light kit to bring. I'll be shooting C100, just the interviews.

• Diva 400, Diva 200, Reflector, 3 Stands

• Diva 400, 1x1 Light Panel (Daylight), Reflector, 3 stands

• Diva 400, Lowel Prolight 250w, 1x1 Light Panel (Daylight), Reflector, 3 stands.

I usually like lighting daylight, but these are supposed to have a slightly more low-key look to them. Ideas? I'm leaning towards the third option...

Also any thoughts on cool places to get city shots of Cleveland? - I'll have a rental car.
