    I can do Xenon H4 globes that are equivalent to 190/150w but still only draw 60/50w. No heat, super bright white light. Not super cheap though. $145 including postage.

    hey, i have the cheap monaro lights (ie altezzas) in mine. they are projector type and i use narva plus 50's (which give 50% more light plus 20 metre longer beam, same wattage) in both high and low and they are much better than standard globes. combined with my spotties i have over 800m of daylight when i need it
