 100/90W Bulbs Part 2

If you guys remember my post when I first bought my bulbs:
http://www.toymods.org.au/forums/viewthread.php?FI D=4&TID=5724
Just thought I'd post up and say that the bulbs are still going strong after however many months.
I drive every night (except for the month when I was in the USA) and no problems so far.
Long stints on high beam on the freeway haven't caused any problems either.

Yeah, I find they do get a bit annoying when people are driving behind you with them on but you can't argue that they don't work better than the conventional ones!

Rice blue? Yuck.
Replace them now. I also hate those things. Only cops are suppposed/allowed to have blue lights on their cars anyway.
But anyways, my WHITE xeon gas 65/55 outers and 100w inners are going fine for me too. They are just as bright as when I got them last year. Helluva sight brighter than my standards.
I might even upgrade the inners, the reflector is supposed to be good for 200w~.
Heh, I notice the strain on the engine when I put highbeam on while idling.
[Habib voice]Full sik bro, turn the lights off for another 20 RWHP[/Habib voice]

Err.. No. There's a slight tinge of blue and a bit of yellow, but it's mainly white.

Not exactly! You'll find that some bulbs are more efficient than others!
I bet that I could put a 15watt emitting device in your reflector and it would melt real quick

Unless you have got the wiring done you are never going to get the most out of your headlights...I was dropping 3.5V by the time it got to the lights. Upgraded all the wiring and its now about 14v at the lights. Nearly doubled the intensity of the lights using the same bulbs!!
