I think you're wise to be looking at fluorescent for use with a solar panel, IMHO. Even so, you're looking at a few more items besides the pv panel if you're going to run the light independent from another power source. You'll have to have a charge controller to go with a battery bank. Are you using solar as a 'just to do it' purpose or do you need the lighting to be independent? Have you considered a small gas generator simply for running a few lights? There are some inexpensive small portables that aren't too noisy. Of course, you can run a dc light array, too, and use a battery bank for it. I ran a dc well pump off batteries and charged the batteries with a trickle charger before I set my solar panels. I'm not sure what you're hunting for, but if you're looking to experiment with solar power, I wish you all the best. The initial cost is expensive, but it's rewarding to know you're generating your own power. I would think for a fluorescent light, you wouldn't need too large of a pv panel. Be careful with the panels that are sold on ebay. You might try visiting a solar site and calling a help line. Most of the places I've dealt with offer excellent advice and counsel by techs over the telephone.
Good luck.
