New Landing Light-AERO LEDs SunSpot 4580 replace Parmetheus Plus

I just replaced my Whelen Parmetheus 28v Par-46 (PLED462L) with  a AeroLEDs SunSpot 4580.  Significantly more wattage (170 watts vs 36 watts).  Definitely brighter.  I just can't promise if it's worth the AMU.  Taxiing at night is easier for these 50+ year old eyes, and that's why I bought it.  I'll have no pics for comparison, but did do some night flying at airports with minimal lighting at night (e.g. N40) and found taxiing much easier.  So I guess it was worth it.  Not sure what to do with the Parmetheus...maybe ebay.  No point keeping it as a spare, as LEDs supposed to last 10,000 hours....Due to increased wattage not clear if I should leave this one on from startup to shutdown like I did with the old one...
