Re: LED bulbs
i can tell you that the standard bulb on same wall was dull off white and about 1/3 of the brightness. i'm pretty impressed so far.

Re: LED bulbs
Hey Bibio, the problem as I see it and why I went for the Philips Extremes was that the LEDS use little power so the R/R runs hotter all the time...?

top tip, you can fit these upside down by mistake. you want the two led's to form a pyramid upwards when installing them in the headlight. i think both bulbs are 60w rated not 'equivalent' rated. having said that i would guess that each led cob is 20w so dip uses 40w. add in the electronics+fan loss and its probably about the same. |
