My answer would be it depends on the distance of the spot to cover and the width.
Be it close, like lighting the heads on roadshow, being short throw, to cross
playfield, being long and wide.
For short throw, it doesnt matter much.
For Brightness:
Opmax>Quasar>Twin2835>4SMD
The two Caveats, is Opmax is over 320 degrees, so un rectified is a bit brighter..., is a bright wide beam just under 1 watt.
For a spotlight, super bright, and narrow focus, a 1 Watt Magnum is bright as hell.
