No long hose on the sidemount - as you say the tnaks are passed off. The
light does not seem to get in the way - the tank is in front of it and
beside it.

Look on the GUE or WKPP site at the last Wakulla D Tunnel clips with me
and Casey carrying video lights on the left side - they are under the
stage tanks. I bet you can not even see them . Our normal primary light
is on the right side.

You do not want a neutral light, and you do not aen it on your butt -
that one is a "13 reasons" post in the archives.
