Which headlight bulb?

nikovich · May 28, 2021

Hey guys,

I'm looking to upgrade my super dim halogen 48 volt headlights on my cheapo 2009 walmart E-scooter, and this is the bulb that's in there right now https://www.multinationalparts.com/products/details/3153

Does anyone know of an LED bulb that would be a good replacement please?

This current bulb is pretty small, maybe 2 and a half inches long by an inch and a half wide.

Thanks for any suggestions. I don't want to completely rip this thing apart, just find a brighter bulb that will fit in the existing socket.

That is a bizarre headlight bulb, more like an 1157 tail light bulb.

This would fit, and be brighter.

You need the 1157 equivalent. The first one will work fine, the second one will not.
