I hope to write up a post on my experience with a set of Westcott TD5 Spiderlites within a week or so. So definitely watch for it. As for comparing them with strobes, I can make that comparison only loosely based on my knowledge of strobes - but it is mostly not first-hand. While I have worked with strobes in the past, I have far more experience with hotlights since I work in television. Then again, still photography with hotlights may be a different thing entirely. I'm doing some experiments now to find out and I'll write it up soon. Funny you should ask! I hope to write up a post on my experience with a set of Westcott TD5 Spiderlites within a week or so.

I haven't got much more experience with strobes, but my limited experience so far has made them my preference to use.
