There is some information in the Tech Folder regarding lighting and upgrades, but nothing inclusive of all the options because there are too many.

I don't know how I could combine the threads or information into a format that is relevant and makes sense...

I am open to ideas or suggestions though...

I think the thread you linked above would be a great start. Probably because it outlines what I did, and of course that is the best for everyone.

Yeah the technology is changing so fast a sticky or Tech Folder post will be obsolete 5 minutes after posting. Better to keep inquiries and answers current imo.
