What are some very bright lights that dont generate a ton of heat suitable for video? Im worried that some random LED light on amazon wont be remotely bright enough. I need to record LCD screens on a product so the lights need to be very bright so I can balance the LCD exposure with the studio lights while using a blue light filter.
Got a tip for us?

don't buy some random led-lights - i've used a few (dedo, comer, lite-panel) - the best ones were the dedos - and i'm pretty sure they were also the most expensive ones.
maybe you should look for some flourescent light-systems like "kino flo"

i second kino's. great lights, i regularly use 2 4 bank diva lights toss a reflector or 300w kicker light behind my subject and get a great lit images.
How much money do you want to spend? There's nothing better than the ETC Desire StudioHD LEDs right now.

Variable color temperature and tint, and variable refresh rate too.

Try CFL lighting. It can be very bright and not hot. It is about 1//5th the cost of LED lighting.

Basically it says to place the bulbs in the reflector.
Would a 4 bulb softbox like this be very bright?

To OP, I'm using a setup virtually identical to those lights with a different brand name. Here's a video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gn1us37pqEs
