They're both supposed to be continuous lighting kits:

This, a proven workhorse in the industry:

And this, a superb softbox kit:

They're both priced around the same. Bare in mind that prices are in Australian dollars.

I am rather keen on the softbox kit, and plan to use it in music videos and probably TV commercials, but I know many of you favour the ballast-driven lamp.
Feel free to throw in any suggestions / opinions.
 
They look cheap. I wouldn't expect them to last that long. Try and find a brand you have heard of, you will probably save money and get something that will last a lifetime by buying used.

Buy Mole-Richardson, Arri, KinoFlo, and Bardwell & McCallister, or maybe Lowell (I personally thing they are flimsy and don't like them but a lot of people love them)
