This is the halogen spotlight I am using on my boat now. It uses an H3 100 watt halogen bulb. I would like to replace with an LED H3 bulb which uses much less wattage. There are several bulbs I could buy from Amazon that would fit, but if the bulb is too long it wouldn't focus into a tight beam like the halogen bulb does. Might anyone know of an H3 LED bulb that would be a good replacement for my 100 watt halogen bulb that would be short enough to focus like my halogen bulb to make a bright, low wattage docking spotlight?

Dunno' much that'll help with the bulbs, but that's a very pretty boat :)

Looks like Cullen Park from your pic, few years back in that it has all been redone now

Cullen Park indeed! Amazing you can tell that with just this pic of one of the docks! Southkog, thanks for comment about my toyboat! This is one thing I tried.....I got an LED "spotlight" from Amazon, but it didn't work any where near good enough on water, though it sure looked good on land! I even wrapped a shiny aluminum shroud around it hoping it would make a tighter beam but result was negligible......

Cullen Park normally and during times of low water, when a strong easterly wind has piled water into western Lake Erie, followed by an abrupt change of wind from the west, during Autumn when water is normally lower anyway.

Might any Toledo Ohio Maumee Bay boaters know how this Cabin Cruiser ran aground on Grassy Island in mouth of Maumee River in September 2015?
