What to get after worklights?
 
I have a pair of dual 500W worklights (that means 2KW of tungsten in total). We all know their drawbacks: low color temperature (sub-3200K), generating copious amounts of heat, difficult to set up. For my next purchase, I am torn between buying a 650W Arri fresnel plus home-made fluorescent softbox and a complete kit from Rostronics. What would be the wisest way to spend $500? I am not averse to buying used.

Perhaps a chimera 8000 kit new at 500 and change
 
Use your work lights for backgrounds or bounce.

I think you will be happy
bh.. item 8000 and 8005
we have edu discount as well but these prices at bh are pretty close.
Grids. bank, light. good stand and bag.

peace out
