Not true, think about it this way:
a prism is designed (for a headlight ) to take advantage of a bulb, meaning
it will project the light to a cretin distance, your headlight is aimed to
provide you with light from point A to point B (say for the purpose of
discussion 100 feet).
If you use a different bulb (positioned in a different location in the
prism) you are tempering with the original design, consequently diminished
performance), just an example I don't know if that is what you did.
If you are changing the wattage of the bulb (which you did) you are still
using the same prism with more light intensity, most of the time IT IS FAR
MORE IMPORTANT TO HAVE AN EFFICIENT PRISM than more wattage (sorry for
shouting).
Most of the time if your prism is not designed to handle the added wattage
read bigger, you are getting a very small advantage!!!
the above is my point and again every case is different what I described
above is generally correct but exceptions do exists!!!
