LR Safari 5000 driving spotlights - type of bulb !?
Hi Gents,

Bought this used Safari 5000 from ebay the other day, still did not fit because i want to know if it is worth swapping the original bulb.

I have 2 X Orsam H3 night breaker, do you think it is better quality than the original?

Does this spotlight support H3 or it is another type.

It is just i wanted to known before hand if it is worth opening the spotlight or not.

Thanx guys if this is the case probably the H3 Orsam night breakers are better than the originals as i have the night breakers for my driving Healamp.

Will keep you posted with final result.... Happy Travel

Just to recap

It is easy to disassemble and assemble , the bulb is indeed as you mentioned H3 , the genuine bulb is yellowish and I have swapped with H3 orsam night breakers and the result is much much better.

The spotlight are recommended for what I want .....more light indeed

My 2 cents
