Can a GE4800 be paired with a GE4860? If so will one be brighter than the other?

I was looking to buy another spare to go with the 4860 that I already have. The specs on it are 60 and 80 watts @ 28volts
I figured the 4800 might be a little dim compared to the 4860 if I paired one with it.
And I really don't know the part number of the two that I installed when I restored it. They came with Douglas connectors on the wires. I'm just figuring they are the 4860's. I guess it's time to go and determine what I actually have in the vehicle.

Now I know what I have in the vehicle. They are Wagner 4863-1 80/60W 28v.
So now hopefully a GE4860 will pair up with one of those Wagners if one fails. If not then I'll have to change them both out.

The leads were already on the sealed beam when I purchased them.
Wow, $50.00 for a head light!
