Anyone recommend strong PAR 38 LED Bulbs? Everything I'm finding is pretty low like 100-125 watt equivalent. I currently have 175W incandescent in the sockets now.

Philips makes a 32w PAR38 LED. Others make similar lamps. 2800 lumens in a 25 degree beam.
Good luck,

Compare lumens instead of wattage equivalents. They can claim it's equivalent. The output measured in lumens tells the story if it is.

I'm not aware of any 175w equivalent LED's. Although a high-lumen "100w" LED bulb might come close to the output of a 175w incandescent that has some use to it.

175 W incandescent? 175W is the common wattage of metal halide, & mercury vapor lamps, 150 is a standard wattage of incandescent lamps.
