Hey there guys. I've been shooting different types of pics lately and I think I'd get a lot of benefit out of buying a tripod and light kit. Here's approx what I'm looking for...

lights: something with batteries. maybe 'monoheads'. i need the whole kit.. lights, stands, the battery, etc etc

tripod: something that will hold my heavy ass camera and lenses. doesn't need to be top of the line, but it would be nice if it was a) sturdy, and b) has a head that can be operated with one hand.

I don't know that much about this stuff so any advice or recommendations would be good, but really what I'm looking for is something selling mid-range used gear for cheap. Please point me in the right direction if you hear of anything or know anyone.
