Headlamp bulbs???

Hey guys i am ordering some stuff for kill season and i was going to get some extra bulbs for my Br. Eyes 21v belt. i see that there are adapters that go from the wheat style bulb to a PR style and allows the using of halogen bulbs??what does this mean for the brightness and battery life? i would imagine the halogen would be brighter?? what is the best bulb out there, i currently use a 12v32 which is great but has anyone had better luck with something other than that?

I am no expert on lights but my experience with halogen lites/bulbs has been that they are weak. Like dimestore flashlight week. But I would guess they extend battery life?

12V32 and 12V30 are all I use other than when I use an LED light.

12V30 are a shade less bright but still plenty and give a little more battery life.

The halogen bulb will probably compare to the regular bulb on low only with a shorter bulb life. Most of the time the price is almost the same between the two. A CB10X is alot brighter then the 12 volt bulbs they do blow out easier though.
