That doesn't seem like a bad lighting kit for 50 bucks. It looks to be your basic 6 dollar clip-on light with stands, and carrying case. So, for 35 bucks more, you get two stands and a carrying case. That's not bad at all.
As for the FDN light bulbs, yeah, they'll work in you're standard worklight. 14 bucks is a little pricey, however. If you buy a case of six (which you'll eventually need), you can get them for 6.71 a piece here. That half the price of B+H. You're welcome.
dpete, the only thing you might want to think about the lighting kit you posted is that you might spend more money buying other things like flags/boards that won't burn, and extra stands to hold those boards and gels and all that to control the very broad, bright light those things must throw out.
