Are the euro sealed beams brighter than the ellipsoids?

I replaced the sealed beam candles in my trusty 91 318ic with hella h4 european lamps, just like Dale has, and replaced the high beams with some inexpensive buckets that I put high wattage bulbs into. When they are all lit up, watch out! The low beam H4's produce just about enough light for low speed driving. After all, they are small lamps. May go to a higher wattage bulb but don't want to get a ticket or blind anyone.
