The cheapest trick is to get a a shop/flood light from somewhere like Home Depot. You should be able to get a pair of these 500W halogen work lights mounted on a stand for about $30. They create an impressive amount of light, but also get dangerously hot, so be careful where you place them.Comment

BH Photo and Video is a great source for lights. Look up Lighting Kits.Originally posted by ToonlogosWhats an inexpensive portable light for shooting some amateur model stuff indoors? How many minimum are required? Is one enough?
As for how many, I generally recommend three. Here is a link to a short tutorial on Three Point Lighting.
Media College has other tutorials you might find handy as well. Browse around.
Good luck,

This place also has a nice assortment of continous lighting kits, and are pretty helpful if you call them with questions...
