So far so good - very bright and clean. Quick and easy install.
Ordered these replacement bulbs last week. Shipping was reasonably quick. Pretty impressed for the price paid.
What I like:
- lumi led's used
- simple design
- zero audio noise or feedback
- you can clock the bulb after it is locked in which made for a big difference in output and focused cutoff
- very white in color. More like a 5k which I like.
Time will tell if they last.
I did some quick and very basic dummy tests with a lux meter just to see if they were any brighter than the relativley new halogens I have installed. In basic lux meter tests, they produced 1.6x to 1.7x more lux than the relativley new halogen bulbs. Big difference at night. Brights are brutally bright!
Being able to clock the bulbs to match your reflector or projector made a massive difference. Not only did they almost double in output when rotated properly, but it took the cutoff from being a mess with scattered light to being razor sharp on low beams.
I would buy again - just hope they last. I have h11 and 9005 installed in my 08 gx470. Install took about 5 min per side.
Side note - they draw 1.77a each at 13.8v and they do get very hot. You can still touch the heat sink but cannot touch any part of the led sleeve after a few minutes. Should have looked at the actual temp at the led but did not. Will investigate further only if I have a failure.
