The Rodtiques LED lights claim to be brighter than Halogens, don't require focusing, and use 60% less current. Has anyone tried these lights, and if so, how did you they work for you? Thanks to all for any input you may have.

I purchased my LED bulbs from www.dynamoregulatorconversions.com. Have been satisfied with results. A 6v 5w filament bulb uses o.85 amps (nearly 1 amp). LED equivalent 6v 5w LED bulb uses 0.025 amps. So, you would need to light FORTY 5w LED bulbs to use the same current as ONE 5w filament bulb. Other than costs, bulbs are direct conversion. Just plug them in!
