LED headlights are a perennial topic.  Here's a few links - just
google "elec-trak LED lights" to find more.

I tried 36volt 3-LED bulb replacements with the correct socket
configuration, bought online, and they didn't work worth a damn.
They'd light up on the ~40 volts from the elec-trak charger, but cut
out completely at almost exactly 36 volts.

One of the virtues of incandescent bulbs is that they still work when
your batteries are getting tired, they just get dimmer.  LEDs are
usually less forgiving!
