If you need to save on some space, go with a Solid State Relay like this:

Get this and a 3x AA battery holder for your 11.1 volts

Switch out the lenses if you suspect they might be dirty.
Alternatively, take them out and clean them in warm water and soap. I fielded dirty goggles for a while and it was a night and day difference to see through them while clean! :)
Cut the foam out of the vents, too, and try running without a helmet on. Keep your balaclava off your nose if you wear one.
You can also get away with cutting out some rubber from the vents themselves to increase airflow. Be careful with how you do it, though, and be mindful that BBs can enter your goggles at this point.
If none of this works, I recommend some home-rigged fans. [Here's a 30mm (1 inch) 12V micro fan.] (https://www.amazon.com/Gdstime-30mm-Small-Brushless-Cooling/dp/B00MYNX0ZI) You can get a battery pack with switch that has an output of 12V. [Here's a 8x AA battery pack with a nominal output of 12V; even has an on/off switch built in.] (https://www.amazon.com/CO-RODE-Battery-Holder-Wired-Switch/dp/B00VE7HBMS)
AA batteries typically output 1.5V a piece, so 8 of them in a case provides 12V. The small fan should draw no more than 1A. 8x AA batteries should supply at least 400 mAh a piece, so you'll have a total current of at least 3.2A coming from your load. You could safely power 3 fans, and given how efficiently they run, you could probably do so for quite a while. I'd recommend 2 fans wired in parallel with the battery pack, though you may only need 1 fan to do the job.
If you don't know anything about electricity, I could post a common-sense wiring diagram if needed.
so lets say I used a 12V battery power supply, connected to a step down for 12V to 5V, connected to the arduino, should i be fine??

You don't want to buy the socket for that plug, you want to cut that plug off. You will not find anything off the shelf that this
To create 12 Volts, you need 8 AA batteries in series (one behind the other). This light draws 0.5a, and a AA battery has around 2-3Ah of charge, so 8 batteries should drive this for about 4-6 hours.
This is 8 battery pack
You cut off the car adapter, and connect together red wires and black wires. Must be insulated from each other (simple clear tape would do). Or just bring the parts to the playa, and I'm sure there are 1000's of folks who can help you wire it. Great way to meet new friends!
Do you happen to know which terminal/connector are commonly used for batteries? It's not for an SV but for a dirt bike and it's connected to a battery pack
Yeah, something like a AA battery holder inside the case. The Z-11Pro2 has room inside the case for it and even has solder pads to make it easy. It's described in the manual. I don't know if the AT-100Pro2 would allow for something similar, but it seems to be of similar size and construction to the Z-11Pro2 so it might be worth taking a look at.
Well, you could get some 5050 leds that work on 5 volts and could just plug into a usb battery pack: https://www.amazon.com/AVAWAY-Flexible-Waterproof-Background-Decoration/dp/B073RZ7XMR/
Or, if you want to stick with the LED strip you have, this battery holder and some rechargeable AA's might do the trick: https://smile.amazon.com/CO-RODE-Battery-Holder-Wired-Switch/dp/B00VE7HBMS
Absolutely.

Hope this helps!
This would be safest if you loaded it with 1.5V batteries https://www.amazon.com/CO-RODE-Battery-Holder-Switch/dp/B00VE7HBMS/
Another option is RC style batteries such as, https://www.amazon.com/Tenergy-2000mAh-NiMH-Battery-Leads/dp/B077Y9HNTF/
Longest life you need a lead acid, https://www.amazon.com/NPP-Rechargeable-Battery-Security-Terminal/dp/B01FYJHP9K/ although you can get them smaller sizes too.
I ended up going with this route: https://www.amazon.com/CO-RODE-Battery-Holder-Wired-Switch/dp/B00VE7HBMS/
I think it is just an easier option for someone like me who shouldn't be digging too deep into a field I know very little on!
