Thanks RyanN. I will discuss this method of battery power with the electrical engineer and hopefully we will have much better results.

When I made the lights for my team's practice feild I decided to put 2.1 mm plugs on the sides and use 12v 1a wall bricks to power them. They seem to work fine and i haven't experinced any problems. Also I placed two 12v fans similar to the ones on the Victor speed controlers so that there was a constant air flow through the box to keep the cathodes cool.

How does FIRST power the green lights on the field?

last year I saw on the practice field that they had a charger hooked up to a battery then a connection from the battery to the light all via Anderson connectors (two connectors attached to the battery)

Each of the lighting kits says it takes 0.7A. Multiply by 4, and that's 2.8 A. We also add two 80mA fans, for a total of 2960 mA. I'd encourage you to have at least a 3A power supply. I've never seen any wall-warts that large, but you can use a computer power supply, or similar. Or just use the old batteries.
