lower wattage light bulbs

Just wondering about those eco headlights I'm sure this was in a discussion at some point. Ihave silver star ultras as headlights and hid fog lights. Fog lights do almost all the road lighting the headlights just do the slightly farther range so I was looking at putting the eco save a couple of watts in. They will only lose an amp off the power draw but since the alternator is around 50% efficient in cars I would be removing about 24 watts of power off the engine which in theory is 24/747 of a horsepower. Is this worth it
