issue I have with them is the LEDs tend to burn out prematurely :( heck, even Audi had that issue when they first started with it.

 

That is becuase you need to contorl the volts IIRC that they see. The truly bright LED's are very sensative to fluxuation and need there power conditioned and stable. If you have a car with cold wealther bulb out checks you need to turn that off too.

Those lights are well made. I used them on both my vehicles, and I have recommended them to my friends who also run them. Not one complained, they are well made and most importantly DOT approved and provide an excellent beam pattern. What about them is junk?

 

You wanna spend more? Well these are $50 EACH

What is JUNK is the H4 bulb they are using and the UTTER LIES in the Ebay post.

 

They are by FAR not "These lights deliver the brightest, most powerful lighting available at the maximum legal limit" To my knowledge the PIAA H4's are the brightes (lums output) and most power full at the legal limit (driven 55W) bulbs.

The bulbs they come with outlasted my PIAA Plasma Ion twin bulbs I ran initially. The included bulbs are brighter than the stock sealed lamps, and that's all that matters.

if you are saying they are junk based on the wording they use on their sale pages, you are just being ignorant. I have hands on experience with two pairs, and 3 friends who also run the same enclosure with mixed bulbs.

 

Those are good headlights, and by far the cheapest DOT approved that arnt riced out.

Yeah no thanks...... If I'm going to upgrade I'm going to make a real upgrade to a projector that is focusable.

 

There wording is total LIES. Nothing about that lens is high quality and focused. I would like to see there actual DOT approval froms. Something tells me they just had the DOT approval stamped into the housing as a lable in China and called it a day.

Well Chinese translated into English... lets just leave that at that... I just wish the Chinese companies would hire an American to RE- translate what their translators have done already. Make it readable for everyday people here in the USA which is where they want to sell their stuff .

anyways... experience is always a plus. If you and your buddies are having great luck with them who can argue?

Keep speculating.

 

 

How about the seller list some real stats like LUMS output and noone would have to speculate. How about they don't lie in there listing.... a lense can NOT make a light brighter, the best it can do is not filter out light. Are you the seller? You seem to really be defending them?

I can. It's not an "upgrade" and lists no real stats, nor can I find where they were submitted for DOT approval and testing in order to bare the DOT approval rating.

Not reall trying to start an arguement. If he's happy with em so be it. I dont like the looks so I'm not gonna buy em.

after re-reading everything I get what youre saying jszucs. The listing has nothing about lumons, etc.

 

This whole thread makes me think of a sign on a Chinese resturant I saw... Buffet mean you eat you go home, not you stay 4 hour.you eat you go home now.

 

love that...

I have no doubt he's happy with them for himself. But to push it like it's great when a simple read even with my horide grammer skills throws up red flags all over..... something just don't sit right with that for me. Edited by jszucs
