Noob question

I just bought this Black & Decker Rechargeable Spotlight over the weekend for $17 @ Wal-Mart.

Is there anything I can do to up the output a bit? Like maybe a different bulb that is a bit whiter and stronger? The light works great and has great throw, but the beam is really yellow.

For example - would these work?

TIA.

:welcome: The bulbs you linked to are 12 Volt, your light is only 6 Volts, sorry it won't work

Unfortunately you're very limited with bulb options because of the 6v 3ah SLA battery. You might be able to get away with a 6v 65w bulb but it may not be any brighter and it might be more yellow because of the extra load on the relative small SLA. Also the H3 bulbs that you linked are probably 12v. Your light is 6.v.

That light has already been optimized for the best performance for the battery it's using.

Thanks for the responses. That was kinda what I figured, but hey, for $17, I'm still happy. :laughing:

You should be...it's still a good light. I have a 6.V spot like that. It's handy when I'm up camping and such.
