    I think you will find the +130 awesome with a decent loom.

    I ran 100 watt globes a couple of times over the years and IMHO they aren't worth it.
    The extra current required (almost double) kinda reinvents the original issue of too much voltage drop.
    The better loom helps but you risk melting the earth side of the headlight plugs or the reflectors on some inserts (fairly common issue if you search on the forum).
    Was hard to be absolutely sure but I had a feeling the 100 watters had a much shorter globe life
    Finally, IMHO the +100 to 130 Philips, Osrams etc in the standard 60/55 watts were equal to the 100 watt globes for useable light.
    Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.
