Everyone had you headed in the right direction re:AD360/Streaklight. Moving from speedlights to 360s is a game changer. I carry and work with two every chance I get. Full body coverage, ISO400, f/8-f/11 at instant recycle times (1/4 -3 power and lower). Well over 1500 shots per charge. They're around 5-7lb I think, all in - head, reflector, battery pack, clamp, cables and bracket. Pound per watt second best investment I've made. I kept my YN622s and went manual for the 360s and it kept the price at about $330/unit after tax, about $375/per with all the accessories. There's a sale on them right now at Adorama for $299.95 - I've seen them go as low as $279.95.

Thanks for the response.
I ended up with a V860ii and 2x TT600 and look forward to an AD200 once available. Since I do most of my flash photography outdoor I feel the Ad200 is a more sensible choice compared to the Ad360ii due to easier portability. The reported 0.5 stop advantage of the AD360ii if confirmed should be really marginal.
