KC light question 150w vs. halogen
Heres the deal i got a free set of 30 year old KC daylighters from my uncle, 150w. One of the lights is good but the other burnt out.
I have to options for replacing the burnt out one
1. Buy another 150w bulb, but it won't be KC
2. Buy halogen conversion kit for a little more money and have 130W bulb
The guy at KC said the halogen last 10X longer?
What do u guys think?

I'd be willing to bet the 130W halogen is brighter than the 150W incandescent too.
Reflector and lens design has come a LONG way in 30 yrs - depending on how much the kit is, you might want to look at new lights.
IMHO, I will not have another set of lights with glass lenses on my truck. Just broken too many. Lightforce for me baby! (They're on sale at http://www.sierraexpeditions.com/ind.../id/4/subid/1/ )
