Xenon bulbs are claimed to be over 50% brighter and the regular wattage are a direct replacement for standard ones.

They cost about 3x as much as standard and are in my view worth it.

There are also blue versions - they give a distinctly blue light hue of light - which is meant to mimic daylight and are marked for off road track use. Personally I don't like them, some how more glarey and I hate looking at them on other vehicles-seems to ruin what is left of your night vision.
