Best light that runs on battery?

I do a lot of event shootings and I need a light that has a lot of kick but run on battery since I do not have time to run a stinger. I'm also not looking for small LED since I want more power and better CRI. Any suggestions?
 
If you can wait until February, Cineo is coming out with a battery operated softlight. I saw a demo of their AC powered light, and boy is it bright! It has great color rendition and is fairly compact. The Jimmy Kimmel show uses several of them to light his monologue.

Oh wow, checking them out now. What's the model name of their light that runs on battery?
 
They're going to be making a battery-operated version of the TruColor LS. Not sure what they're going to call it. It's going to be available with Gold mount or V-mount battery plates, it has an integrated ballast, and there's going to be an IP rated version for outdoor use.
 
If you need a large source, I've used a Motomaster Powerbox with Kino-flos and its worked wonders. Bonus, it can run a small on set monitor as well.
