The Diode Dynamics sl1 are great as Lonestar mentioned, they are the most reliable on the market. Morimoto just released the Morimoto 2 Stroke 3.0 a couple days ago and they look crazy good, if you run in snow or ice at all, they are a game changer as their fan blows into the housing which heats the lense.

You can go with a Hylux Ballast and HID kit for the most light output but you may produce alot of glare, it depends on your housing.

What truck is this going in?

It’s Peterbilt 579
I currently use eld that has fan in it but it’s like a flashlight with battery ran out of juice.

Most plug in Led bulbs are junk, they either don't project very far or they over clock the LED chips to make them brighter but then they won't last. That is why Diode Dynamics is perfect for trucking, they run cool because they are built with premium components but that makes them last a long time. They also have tonnes of expensive equipment that most don't which allows them to closely mimic the output of the halogen bulb that was in there as far as beam pattern goes.
