Good question - it also concerns me.

I have heated grips and GPS, then recently added 2x 55W spotlights.

Not wanting to suffer from the battery failing to charge, I swopped the bulbs in the spotlights for LED's as they only draw 2W, but I am not that impressed.

The LED's are bright and help make me more visible but the quality and focus of the beam is pathetic and they do nothing to light up the road ahead.

Must be something to do with the position of the light source not being at the focal pont of the parabolic lens in the lamp - but I am no expert :-(
