I am wanting to replace some halogen flood lights on my Combine. The LED have a whiter light color. I can see batter with that at night. The Halogen lights are 3x6 lights and pull around 5-6 amps each. What wattage would I want in LED to be about the same current draw???
 
I have seen (STP) advertising some recently. Do not know much about them, although am using LED bulbs in my 70D. Certainly would not consider them flood lights.
 
Look up a company called tigerlights. I started selling these at work and I think they are impressive. They have a lot of plug and play lights for ag equipment. hth, jstpa
 
Thinking back to school days wattage is volts times current, so your combine lights would be 12 volts times 6 amp or 72 watts. I think you are looking for the lumens (or light output) that each put out.

Recently I purchased so LED 4 foot shop lights to replace the fluorescents in my shop simply because the light output(lumens) is so much higher and the current draw is lower.
 
A ballpark figure would be in the 15 to 18 watt range each for LED replacement.

To get more exact, look up the specs for the halogen fixtures you have, note the lumens, spread, and color.

Then do the same comparison for the replacements. Look for higher kelvin color ranges, up around 5000K for the most reflective light.
 
I am looking to do that on my 6610 also, I cannot see well with the halogens against the color of the ground/crops.
 
I replaced my halogen lamps with 18 w leds...having said that i had 6 halogens, but replaced with 8 18w led lamps, but lots more light too...
 

Myself, I like the Yellow flood lights over the Header..could see cutting hight much better..seemed to cut thru the dust better than White..
