Thanks @Phil Rhodes, looks like they did make it to production & still available: https://www.litegear.com/product/litetile-plus-8-kit-2x8-hybrid-complete-kit/
A bit dear though, isn't it? Still, this is good - I'll look at the specs & see what other options we have.
Thanks again!

For several years I've been using a pair of Kino Flo 4-bank fluorescents to light green walls about 18' x 10'. Now I need to set up a new studio of similar size and need to buy new lights - I'm assuming that there are better LED alternatives to the Kino Flo's. I want to have dedicated lights for the green screen, separate from the lighting for the subject.
At present I'm looking at 4' x 1' LED panels, like those from VELVETlight & K5600, or IntellyTech's 3' x 4.5" foldable panels. I might also consider ceiling-mounting additional lights.
Any recommendations?
2021 alternative to Kino Flo 4-banks for chroma key lighting?

I've used the green Kino Flo tubes, I felt like I got more green spill on my subject with them & went back to daylight tubes - though I don't have any empirical evidence to back that up. But, in any case, I didn't see a big difference in the quality of the chroma key background with green or daylight tubes, so it probably doesn't matter if the lights are green or not.
Having said that, those green Flolight kits look really nice, and the price isn't bad either.
