You don't want floor stands. They are ugly and flimsy and take too much room. What you want is some shower curtain rods. The tension mount kind. Install them vertically between floor and ceiling, then use camera mounts to hold the lighthouses. Temporary yet sturdy, they take up only one square inch of floor space, and can even be attractive if you get a style that matches your decor.
Personally I use these rods with these camera mounts. I've used them in four different apartments and they worked perfectly every time, even with high ceilings. In fact, I've started using them to mount other things like security cameras as well.
Tension bars big enough to run floor-ceiling, and clamps with the 1/4 20 camera mount thread on them.
Example: 2x these and 2x these. Shop around for better deals. Look for mention of "ball head" as it us a very simple but effective method for articulation.
I recommend getting a proper mounting solution for the base stations.
I got two telescopic bars (is this the right wording? I'm German...) and smallrig v2 clamps and this is doing it's job pretty fine. It's an additional cost but afterwards you're pretty flexible in positioning you're base stations.
Edit:
I use these exactly:

Do the tripods allow for different sized rods/poles? I found this:

Which appears to be the right size for the lighthouse. But it doesn't say how thick it is expecting the pole diameter to be. I was thinking of using it with this:
