I just got a tractor with 4 halogen work lights at the cab that I'd like to convert to LED.

I did a conversion on our truck and the LEDs put out 12000 lumens. That's nice light.
But I can't find any LED work lights anywhere close to that output.

What do you guys run? How many lumens would you call sufficient?

princess auto, 3,200 lumens, way more than I need, unlike trucks or atv's or snowmobiles max speed is way lower so risk of out driving lights non existent.

I installed LED lights from Tiger Lights. Just looked them up and their site says they are 3200 Lumens each. Nothing near what you said your truck lights put out. However, they are super bright. MUCH brighter than the old OEM lights. You can't look directly at them. Also matched up perfectly to plugs, hardware mounting points, etc.

I wish I could answer your question, but lumens and wattage claims seen to be all over the page.
What I can say is that I am very satisfied with the light output of my 4 point cab lights. They are 9" spot/flood NiLights supposedly 54 watts. Cheap on Amazon.

I just googled your info. A 54w led can produce somewhere from 5800 to 7000 lumens.
That's right the ballpark that I'd like.

Sure you can't look into the light anymore.

Thanks.

I sure like getting blinded by those stupid led headlights people put on cars nowdays.

I just put led bulbs instead of halogen. There are usually cross reference charts. My tractor, utv, motorcycle, cars. More than enough for me. Cheap and easy.
