Yeah I knew it was definitely wrong. That was what was listed for the Wagner sealed beam incandescent bulbs that I was looking at (same as I had on my truck before I removed them.) Obviously the seller put the wrong amount on there, or he used the wrong unit of measurement.

Yeah.. I eventually found that on some random site. But it doesn't make any sense to me.. Using that, 11,000mscp = 138,270 lumens for the low beams. That is definitely not right... Nowhere close. As a point of comparison, the sealed beam LED headlights that I was looking at put out 600 lumens...

After doing a lot of searching I was able to dig up some info. The stock incandescent sealed beams lights are 60w for low beam, 80w for high beam. Current draw is 2.14A for the low beams, and 2.86A for the high beams. The light rating for low beam is 11,000mscp (mean spherical candle power,) and...

That makes sense. I didn't recall seeing it anywhere, but I figured I would ask.

Yeah.. I had thought about that. That's the exact reason why all of the LED stoplights here have heaters built in. They figured out pretty quick that the LED lights didn't put out enough heat to melt the snow. I saw those headlights that you linked to when I was searching on eBay. I mean...

Is there a spot in the TM's, or elsewhere that states the lumen output of the high and low beams for the factory headlights? It would be good to have as a point of comparison... The sealed beam LED headlights that I'm looking at are 600 lumens for the low beam, 1085 for the high beam.

I will consider picking up one of those Grote lights to test out. Price is pretty high.. They're even more than comparable Truck Lites :shock: However, I like the fact that they have clear lenses, unlike the Truck Lites which all appear to be "smoked." That was one of my goals, to improve light...

Than you for the pics :) My goal is to keep it stock looking though, which is why I went with the Hella glass. I ended up throwing in some 90/100w bulbs instead of the 70/75w bulbs. They seem a bit brighter, but I will have to test them out more thoroughly.

Good to know. Sounds like my only option is to go with higher wattage halogens. I appreciate the info :)

So I did the H4 conversion on my M931A2 using Hella glass and 70/75w Hella bulbs. I did the install during the day, and it seemed like I was getting a significant increase in light output. However, when I turned them on at night, it looks like the low beam is almost the same as the old one (I...
