I'd like to hear for others that have installed the high output H4. How significant is the improvement when riding at night? How tight is the fit when installing the ballast in the headlight? Any discoloration of the reflector from the excessive heat?
For the peculiarities of my night vision, the main beam didn't help me enough. I found that the OSRAM Nightbreaker Plus H4 did a better job on high beam for me, although it's not quite as bright on low beam as the Cyclops. Trade-offs...
No better way than LED. The PIAA version isn’t saving you any.My goal is to save electrons at the headlight...
I agree, but it seems moving to a LED bulb would reduce the effectiveness of my current set up. Yep, life is one big compromise.No better way than LED. The PIAA version isn’t saving you any.

I've been running Todd's 3800 lumen LED headlamp for the last 4000 miles. No discoloration or signs of excess heat. No vibration issues.
As with many stock components, the stock headlamp seemed like some sort of strange joke - barely adequate in many situations.
I have found the LED replacement bulb, on the other hand, to be entirely satisfactory in every circumstance.
Are better beam patterns available with an entirely new housing? Undoubtedly, but I have never felt like more is needed, whereas the stock configuration was pathetically unsuitable for most non-urban night time riding.
It depends on how icky-picky you are, but if you want to go from inadequate to functional this is a great purchase without a huge price tag.
Hello - Is Todd's Headlamp bulb need any resistors or is it a Plug & Play for my 2018 V7 III?
C.A.S. H4 LED BULB
Unless you get ones that do not need resistors.The only LED upgrades which need resistors are the indicators.
In which case you have bulbs with resistors (or some equivalent circuitry) incorporated. The CAN-BUS bulbs aren't quite as good as the plain LEDs. The resistors are easy to come by and quite easy to install. I don't see them in Todd's store, so I s'pose I'm ok to say that these gize sell them - procycle.us/bikepages/dr650.htmlUnless you get ones that do not need resistors.
