Hello, all!
I have a 2003 Hummer H2 (AKA Big Pig) that I am looking to upgrade the off road lamp bulbs on. It is a 55w light on a 12v system, with the H3 bulb. I recently took out the stock bulbs (trash), and put in Sylvania Silverstars, but they're not as bright as I would like. My next step is to get the Sylvania Silverstar ZXE xenon halogen H3 bulb (Sylvania rates it at 4300k and 1450 Lumens), and compare with Zone Tech 9-SMD H3 bulbs, rated at 6000k (No spec on Lumens. Can't get a straight answer from vendors for some reason.) Which will be brighter? (not concerned with the whiteness of the light at this point, just the sheer brightness.) Below are links to the bulbs I am considering. If you have brighter H3 bulbs to suggest that do not require converter boxes, ballasts etc, and are just plug and play, please share! Thanks. FYI, I have 14 of these off road lamps on the truck, so I need the brightest bulb offered with the lowest amount of power consumed, ideally.
