Hanging & Mounting Quasar Science Lights

I'm thinking about buying 4 4ft daylight balanced Quasar Science tube lights. My question is how you'd recommend I hang and mount the lights. I know you can use gaffer's tape, but I'd prefer something more sturdy.

Looking online it looks like the best way to hang the light is using a c-stand with a Modern Studio Quasar Tube Lamp Holder attached to it. The lights are only $75, and the stands are ~$150 - so my question is... Would you use a c-stands to hang these lights or is a more cost effecient way to hang and mount these lights?

Also, if I buy 4 c-stands what else could I use them for? I'm aware of using them to hang flags for lighting, or potentially using them to hang my camera above subjects for tabletop photography. Any other uses, or places I can learn online about how to use c-stands?

Also, any recommendations on where I could purchase used c-stands? I'd be okay buying used.

C-stands are amazing, and as long as you get sandbags to weigh them down, they are amazing supports for lights, flags, cameras...a lot of things.

I'm not sure about used c-stands, but you generally get what you pay for. I can't think of a another free-standing system of light support that is as cost-effective while being safe.

Here's a good video on c-stand basics, but you can find a lot more:

I think C-stands are overkill for a single Quasar.

I'm looking at retro-fitting a chines kino copy with LED strip lights. There's lots of way of mounting, or applying these lights to shooting situations.
