    I don't have a flood light for my Toshiba, but I do have an "Obie"
    light that came with my SteadiCam.  The Toshiba has a standard 
    accessory shoe on the top.  The problem is finding a light that will
    operate off the battery pack of the camera.  Given that the side
    mount 9V battery configuration was never that popular, I doubt you
    will.  So pick a lamp that has it's own built-in battery, or a 
    battery pack that you can mount to the camera's underside using
    the tripod socket.  

    My advise would be to take the camera with you to the camera store
    to pick out one that fits well in terms of not making the camera
    harder to hold or use.  (You'll also puzzle the hell out of the
    camera clerk with your weird 2 eyed camcorder.  :-)

                                                        Later...BC
