Get Cineo Matchbox LED at B&H Photo.

The light quality from the Cineo Matchbox is second to none: 160° spread and none of that harsh LED bulb problem because the Matchbox uses remote phosphor technology. Plus the color rendering index is 98 (at 3200°K).

I wanted top quality interior lighting in my Mercedes Sprinter Photography Adventure Van, and while I have not quite figured out the best way to mount the Matchbox lights, the $334 price ($133 off) was too good to pass up. They run off 12V power (6V to 24V actually), so power is not an issue using vehicle wiring and no wasteful DC-AC-DC needed—just direct DC power.
Update: the discount is back as of 2017-09-02: $129 / 27% off for a price of $334.
OWC has some good end of summer deals.
