Different Headlamp

[darrsi]

It can be a minefield, I've had a mixture of cheap bulbs and better ones without much success.
Then I found a place called Classic Car LED's. They make their own LED's which are designed for use in older classic cars, especially older classic cars with reflector headlights.
Read the reviews for their H1 and H4 bulbs, bright white light with a clear sharp cut off on the beam pattern, most of the bulbs I've tried before don't have this cut off, they just scatter the light everywhere.
Granted they are more expensive, but as we only need one H1 and one H4 bulb per bike, if you can split it with a mate or another member then it's not so bad, or keep a spare of each!
I've yet to buy some headlight bulbs for my bike but I've had them in my previous car and they were impressive, I'd recommend them all day long.
I do have their stop/tail bulbs in my fazer and they are very good too.

Just had a look, but it's the same issue i've been having previously, their H1 bulbs have the heat dissipating fins on the back which means they are no good for 98-01 bikes due to having no way of securing the lamp to the housing. 02-03 bikes are okay as i believe they have 2 x H4 fitments.


[size=1em]1600 lumens is similar to my Philips Extreme Vision bulbs, but i'm more interested in the daylight white 6500K colour of them, which will be a closer match to my spotlights.[/size]

[size=1em]I've just found another place that sells them and has both in stock.[/size]

[size=1em]I'll be the guinea pig and buy them so watch this space and i'll let you know the verdict when i get them, and i'll try and add some photos as well.[/size]

[size=1em]NOTE: I've just noticed that on their listing it says 80 watt "per bulb", yet i know from a different advert that they are actually 80 watts "per pair" which would be less power consumption than the 2 x 55w bulbs i'm using now.[/size]

[size=1em]Seeing that my spotlights are only 10w each yet completely outshine my headlights you would like to think that these may do the job okay, fingers crossed.[/size]
