A light box or panel seems to be the way to go these days. It does allow flats to be taken anytime, day or night and a box like Peter makes with a dimmer fitted allows very precise and uniform flats at almost any exposure time you wish to use.

Flats can be the hardest frame you will use. They are the hardest to get just right and even with a light box/ panel it can take quite a bit of experimentation to get them just right but once sussed out they become very repeatable and even.

For the cost I would never consider going back to tee shirt or sky flats again. More work and effort for what usually becomes sub standard and will have to do flats, than it's worth.
