The tri-pod with twin halogen work lights that I picked up at the local Home Depot only cost about $29 bucks. The height is adjustable from about 2-feet off the ground to about 6-feet high. I position the tri-pod either near the front bumper, or near the fender. I carry a 100 foot extension cord and borrow the customer's power. These lights draw some amps so I usually only run one light at a time so that I don't accidentally trip the customer's circuit breaker (plus it helps save on bulbs) even though I have never had to replace one yet.

One light puts out plenty of light. In also puts out some heat, so you could even warm your hands or even the windshield (from a distance of course) so you don't warm the glass too fast.
