Blueeyesredpanda · 11-09-2016, 11:34 AM

Just wanna share my experience with these H8 bulb with 108 leds.
Its so bright, and well built, its made out of a metal case. It also has a small projector lens

I will give it a 10/10 over all

Color: 10/10 Super whtie
Quality: 10/10 Metal case feels strong and reliable
Packaging: 9/10 Fairly simple package, not something fancy, but as long as the bulb has good quality

Pic 4 (turned off) vs 5 (turned on)

Are you using them for the angel eyes, fog lights, or low beam?

I had them for Fogs. Thought our low beam was Xenon...

I tried it for AE too. Super bright and white just like LUX. But the gutter ring isn't as bright tho. But if you look at these tow pics, the OEM bulb outer ring is kinda losing color too.

Thanks for sharing the pics. The website has an option for resistors for an extra $7. What does that do? Did you run into problems without them?

Yea I bought the resistor too. If you know how to code your cars, then dont worry about it because you can code off the light bulb error. A resistor prevents error code from coming on using aftermarket light bulbs

Dark_Knight_335 · 11-09-2016, 09:02 PM

No codes using just the bulbs? I assume you need resistors.

That's a shit ton of glare. A fog light should not be lighting up tree branches.

But it does light up to the tree. It has a projector lens on top of the bulb.

That's my point, a fog light is not supposed to. You'll be blinding other drivers. Even a low beam headlight isn't supposed to light up the tree. That's high beam status.

It doesnt blind other drivers. Where I took the pic was so dark, so little bit of light can make objects in the front reflect lights.

If a foglight can blind other drivers, do you know how bright our XENON are? Especially the Lci xenon. PS you have no idea what you are talking about. If thats a high beam status you would have hit a moose by now.

They may not work well in angel eye because they are not matched to the fiber optic tubes.

Angel eyes need to be viewed at least 20 feet away to get an accurate depiction of outer ring output, FYI.

+1. a daytime comparison to the stock bulb would be the most helpful. Night time pictures have no point of reference for brightness

Yes, I do know what I'm talking about since I have custom built headlights before.

There is a thing called beam patterns and cutoffs. A fog light beam should not be shining any significant amount of light higher than the fog light itself. Fog lights are meant to be aimed low to light up the foreground.
