Well, after a lot more research I went with the YN-468 flash and the FX-5 Beater Beamer. Total cost was $97.34. The main problem through all this was finding comparability between the three elements of the equation. I want to thank everyone for there comments and insights.

I was in Costa Rica all of January and used my 600 RT and the better beamer.  I posted some shots and one person did ask why I needed the BB as my flash alone would throw light 30 ft. I does concentrate the light more and It worked well. With the flash you got her it won't hurt to have some extra distance.
