I finally decided to get a new light and would like to get some good advice.

My current plans are a HID lighthead hooked up with an 18" EO cable on the
lighthead and a 30" EO cable on the cannester to allow me to swap lightheads if
I ever need to.
I will then add an 18" EO Cable to my old testtube light and will carry this as
a spare.
I dont know which is the best bulb  to get with the HID lighthead an 18W, 21W or
24W bulb. Burn time is not a problem for my diving with any of these bulbs, I
will be using this light in the standard North-Central Florida Caves (not
Talahassie Power Caves) Madison, Ginnie, Little River, Manatee, Peacock, Cow
etc.

Please advise if there are any serious defects in my thinking as far as lights
go and tell me which of the 3 bulbs is the preferred setup.

Thanx

Michael Fisch
