straight-talk:
The Mole 412 & 5291 "Junior" fresnels deliver a lot of light for video and high-speed film projects.  At 2000 watts, the Junior can still be powered by household outlets, but be careful.  Breakers serving the outlet should be rated at 20 amps and there should be no other electrical devices, household or otherwise, on that circuit.

The 412 features a 10" lens, the 5291, an 8" lens.  They have identical light characteristics and are, essentially, interchangeable.

Keep cloth flags, nets, and silks well away from a 2Kw instrument.  They can char and burn!  Consider using gels in 4x4 frames rather than attached to the barn doors.

To make the best use of the Junior (and any high-wattage fixture) with household power, you should have some knowledge of basic electrical calculations and on-set technique.
