Buying Daylight Balanced LED Lights

I am done upgrading cameras. Last years cameras are good enough. I have 2x GH1s, which when hacked are amazing at ISO 100-400, in my opinion. I have decided that rather than upgrade to a camera like the GH2 that can shoot at higher ISO, I am going to buy lots of lights and shoot at 100 ISO, as it looks gorgeous, and light scenes carefully. What a breakthrough! I am going to treat shooting video like I used to treat shooting film!

That said, I always liked HMIs in the old days and have never been able to buy any, obviously, as they cost a fortune.

Can anybody recommend a good comparison article on the various LED light fixtures available these days. I'd like a big key, a medium powered fill or two and some smaller highlighting lamps. Any ideas of where to start my quest? Thanks.
 
Thanks. Am I right in going down the LED road? It seems the obvious way to go to me, bang for buck wise, and also daylight balanced - woohoo! Is there any reason you recommend Bicolour over orange gelling a daylight colour?
