Dave,
I am sure that you are going to get a variety of answers to this
question.
I have been using Lucas Halogen H4s in my Spitfire for over 20
years. Love 'em. No problems with charging circuit, and light
output is great. Last fall, I did have one lamp act up, hit the
wing and the light came back on. Figure that I have a bad
connection. Not bad after all this time. Still using the original
bulbs.
One source for these is Vintage Motors and Little British Car Company.
