Headlights?
 
I want to put some brighter lights on my ASW Carbide. It came with 35w, I currently have 55w, and I want something that is a little brighter. I have a bigger battery than it came with. I found some 100w bulbs that will fit. Do you all think the electrical system could handle that?

yes i know it can just wears out the wires faster

That's not good.. I have a few questions...
1) What wires wear?
2) Would 75w bulbs be better?
3) I've seen a few that are listed like 75=100. Does that mean they only use 75w but have the brightness of 100w?

Here are some of the lights I found

Sorry for the redundant messages. I can't figure out how to delete the extra two

consider going with LED, amp draw rate is far below filament type.
