next questions:

1. is there any "lightweight"  Bitcoin client I can use for Lightning?
Not right now, no, but there are plans to make it work with a pruned node

I know about Neutrino https://github.com/lightninglabs/neutrino, but they dont recommend use their client in mainnet]
Yeah, Neutrino isn't mature enough for mainnet yet.

2. How can I move my Lightning Node to another server/ip address? How can I save all channels and peers after move?
Stop LND with
Code:
lncli stop
Then backup .lnd folder
Restoring the folder should preserve your channels and peers.

You don't need to worry about changes in IP address; your node will gossip the change to your peer and other nodes in the network.
