Color temperature is an indication of colour and not to be confused with heat. Color temperatures over 5,000K are called cool co There are no bad H4 bulbs here, but the RacingVision is our choice. For top D3S performance it has to be the Philips, and Ring is our standard choice. Don’t be tempted to save cash on unbranded alternatives. Special note for Australia:We have been advised that parcels are currently expected to take 15-25 working daysto arrive to Australia, depending on the location. This is due to measures being taken to prevent the spread of Covid-19. We are currently taking steps to try to reduce this delivery time as much as possible.

Experience a colour temperature of up to 3700K which will give the stylish appearance of LED headlights. With the manufacturer’s meticulous design and testing processes, the range has been approved to ECE standards for use on UK roads.An ST2 was cheaper than an ST3 yet an ST 2 with some options I.e cruise control, satnav, bixenon headlights was more to insure than an ST3 which comes with those and more as standard... When queried, the insurance company explained that optional extras are insured as mods that were factory fitted but not on the spec of vehicle as it would be in standard guise.

Running both tests at the same time, although in different headlamps, gave us a chance to see just how big an advance HID was over halogen when it was introduced over 20 years ago. Yes, this is the problem here, most insurance companies do not really care whether it is legal or not legal, it only matters whether they are paying out more in case of a claim. I sometimes doubt that whether VOSA or any other legal authorities are doing anything to stop illegal mods. Every evening, I have cars behind me with odd and ill adjusted beams (on one side) shining into my mirrors and my eyes, I am not even sure if they have their proper MOTs or simply illegal uninsured cars. Then you have plenty of cars having at least one missing brake light on the road. Are these more dangerous than replacing your plate bulbs with LEDs? Certainly. But are insurance companies helping out to rectify these, a big NO! It finished last in all our tests and delivered just 16 per cent of the area above 30 lux compared with our winner – easily visible to the naked eye. It came as no surprise that both samples failed to reach the minimum light levels by a significant margin. Avoid.Please note: Due to the enhanced white light, the Philips WhiteVision Ultra range has a shorter expected lifespan compared to standard halogen bulbs. As a result, we only offer a 6-month warranty on this range. That's where they should have declared as we all know insurance will look for anyway to not pay out ... However a simple uprated halogen that is marked for road use will is not a problem. But we are still deviating off topic ... Options will be available to people with all types of fitment and it probably won't take long for road legal versions of said items ... We only ship to parts of the US, states include:California,Florida, Georgia, Illinois, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, Virginia, Washington, Alabama, Arizona, Colorado, Iowa, Idaho, Kansas, Massachusetts, Maine, Missouri, Mississippi, Montana, North Dakota, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Carolina, Tennessee, Wisconsin This is the category of the bulb. It may be Max Vision or just a standard replacement or even off road etc.

Drivers will be able to achieve up to 60% more vision at night compared to standard halogen headlights. The longer beam pattern means you will not only be able to see other road users more clearly – but also be seen more clearly by others.Other requirements The requirements of paragraph 5.5.2. shall not apply to dipped-beam headlamps. Dipped-beam headlamps with a light source or LED module(s) producing the principal dipped beam and having a total objective luminous flux which exceeds 2,000 lumens shall only be installed in conjunction with the installation of headlamp cleaning device(s) according to Regulation No. 45.11 I think you should consult your insurance as aftermarket lighting LEDs and HIDs are listed as possible modifications.

The tests were the same for both types, despite the different light sources: filament for the halogen and an arc between electrodes for HID. The Figure of Merit for HID is close to double that of the halogen, with a beam that’s 30 or so metres longer. Not sure on that as currently the LED needs to be E-marked to be legal for on-road use & again, currently afaik that is only possible where the vehicle or the complete light unit has been homologated. As an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), Philips can guarantee precise fitting and alignment to enhance the view of the road ahead. With much greater awareness of the presence of potential hazards, the headlights will help you drive with safety in mind.Lumens (denoted by lm) are a measure of the total amount of visible light (to the human eye) from a bulb or light source Also, ECE-R48 6.2.6.1 has a whole slew of stuff relating to the aim & tolerance of lights which are very tight. It does allow for manual levelling in 6.2.6.2.2, however, 6.2.9 has "With respect to vertical inclination the provisions of paragraph 6.2.6.2.2. above shall not be applied for dipped-beam headlamps with a light source or LED module(s) producing the principal dipped beam and having an objective luminous flux which exceeds 2,000 lumens*." I never said that they only consider performance enhancing what I said is most insurance companies don't charge or charge very very little for aesthetics whereas performanceenhancing modifications tend to have a massive charge again depending on your insurance. Introducing Philips’ most stylish and whitest, road-legal set of halogen bulbs – the Philips WhiteVision Ultra.
