    I guess you did not see this link. I would at least get one of the 30 watt bulbs if not the Cyclops 3800.

      Did I screw up again? If it's brighter than the stock one I'll be happy for a while....

        I don't know that. I backed out of the Monster based on Grand Rouge's assessment that he was unsure it was any better when mounted in an 8" Trainlight. Your 7" may be different.



        From what I can tell there are two levels above using LED's 30W and 40W (rated). The Cyclops only uses actual 32W of power but that has been typical for what other ratings I have seen. I have another LED work light rated at 18W and it was only 12W on power.

            So what is the best bulb for the train light?

              See the link in my response to Charlie. This looks to be about the best as I can tell from a bench test. Better cut off than halogen and better spread than 55w hid; may even be brighter at most angles.
