I like tye Hello Optilux XB bulbs. Note that if a bulb is brighter, it requires more amperage.

This cleared up the idea I have always had about these whiter bulbs are not as bright.

Love love love your videos! Always happy to see your face come up when I'm unsure of what bulbs to get next, thank you so much!

This video was incredibly helpful even now, thanks.

U recommend gtr utlra 2.0 on projectors that have high and low as one?b

The best helpful video I found about these headlight bulbs. Thank you!

The Morimoto HID kit is fantastic (5500k). Light output is superior to the Phillips Zenon’s I had previously. I have a ‘15 Grand Cherokee with projector headlamps (originally halogen) - what a HUGE improvement! When run with LED’s in fog lights (I installed SNGL Focus) they make for a great combination and make driving at night sooooo much easier. It’s hard to believe the difference.

Great video. Went to your side and compared similar bulbs. Went with the ZXEs, while they aren't really white they have amazing brightness over my OEM bulbs. Thank you for all the work you put into your videos and research !

I had the ZXE bulbs in an 03 lancer, they look yellowish, but a bit less than stock for daytime running, but turn a solid white when headlights are on. No blue tint. I do like them if you have an excuse to use headlights.

A couple of year old video but great comparison. Helped me throwing some light on what to go for.

Good job! Straight to the point.

I personally love the Silverstar ZXE in have them in my 2008 Chrysler 300 Limited with the projector head lamps looks beautiful in the day and night

Great video and information on the various bulbs out there, thank you!! Run the Philips DV, like the blue color that comes through even when off. Thanks again for the work put into this content!

Osram cool blue intense is the best mix of the bunch. You get that nice whitish color at 4300k and 20% more light over OEM so you're not gonna be blind... Best part, they are dirt cheap

I just got the Phillips diamond vision. Look real good. But I kinda want something just a little more blue

In May of this year I picked up the Sylvania Silverstar ZXE for my 2014 Jeep Wrangler JK. As you may know the JK series suffers from very anemic OEM bulbs. I am quite happy with the zxe they are definitely brighter and whiter. Picked them up at AutoZone and paid more than I should have. Still quite happy. Thanks for the reviews, I am really starting to enjoy this channel.

glad i came across this video, Looking to upgrade the bulbs in my 2014 Ram 1500 with projector housing. Not looking to go LED or HID. Just want some bright white bulbs......

I love my ZXE’s but I might try a different those Phillips, just for the look. Great vid thanks!

I use the cool blue intense. They are very bright in my opinion, and are at around 4200k which is decently white

What do you guys think the best Xenon/HID look headlight bulbs are?

i have the sulvania silver star ultras in my low beam halogen projectors audi a4 and the zxe as my high beams and i have to admit i love the combo.

THANKS! you just save me a lot of money! I was about to buy a set of headlight bulbs which I thought were very good, but then referred to your website and showed very poor performance. Getting another set as recommended 👍👍👍👍

Thank you I found this perplexing. I had assumed you went for aftermarket headlights because you wanted better Vision at night but you report that some of these lights are actually dimmer than the originals which defeats the purpose for many of upgrading the headlights in order to see better at night. Why would you ever pay more for dimmer light is beyond me.

Thanks for your hard work, your research and reviews is second to none. Will you be testing Maruta / MTec Super White 5500K? These are now available in most sizes in the UK at a very good price

Nice flowers mate :D

Nice comparison but, what about the Sylvania ZXE Gold??

really good video thanx

So, I just put in some new blue tinted bulbs i got from Amazon, from Voltage Automotive. I can't find much information on the company at all. But I have the uncommon bulb type, H11b. These are super affordable. I replaced my silverstar ultras with these. In general, the H11b bulbs from Sylvania are $20-30 more expensive than all their other bulb types. Kind of stinks, so I went with these voltage automotive bulbs...got a 4 pack for $24! I think my Sylvania were about $75 for the pair.

Hi buddy thnx for the great video, im looking for the best xenon bulbs and H7 as well as for my fog lights for e90 2008 model 320i bmw ,a cool blue will be good for me pls advice,watching from South Africa

Grand general icy blue, are damn good! Take the yellowish right out, nice white light. And affordable.

I've purchased PIAA Xtreme white hybrid for a 2006 Tacoma and they were decent despite not being their whitest bulb. I purchased a second pair for a 2009 Volvo C30 and they should be here on Friday. I'd be curious as to how these test in brightness relative to OEM. Of course I search for videos after I order.

Any recommendations for W5W pilot lamps or puddle lamps? I'm looking to replace the yellow light with a bit whiter option, but I prefer non-LED bulbs. Can you also suggest manufacturers that produce bulbs in the W5W form.

Which one would you recommend for me, I have BMW projector headlights, I need white look instead of yellow. H7, thinking about OSRAM Cool Blue Intense, it is 4300K, but I heard its not that white.

Need some high beams to go with HID low beams. I want the ZXE's but will they look too odd beside the HID's?

Alright so you said that the first two are WHITER, but not brighter. Did the oem halogen bulb that you guys tested with have the glove on the tip? Maybe that affected your testing?

I run the led cob chipset H4 dual beams with the built in fans. Absolutly brilliant lights and very bright too. Also direct plug and play. Could you do a video on cheap buls that are on the market with similar properties? Thanks

My diamond vision h7 lasted almost 2 years lol just burned yesterday. Pretty good bulbs and they look blue

Very good video mate

Do these white halogen bulbs need to have UV filters when fitted to projector headlights with polycarbonate front cover?

BulbFacts, I have a 2014 Mercedes C250 and want white headlights to match my DRL's. I would like to have them be bright white. Could you please recommend what set to buy for my car. Thank you so much for your time. The more I research, the more I get confused.

Hi.Philips Diamond vision and Osgram cool blue hyper are they D.O.T spec.Thanks Bernie

Do you have a video on the Flosser brand halogens? I’m considering buying the 9005s. Love the videos!

Anybody try the ZXE Gold yet? I have ZXE now and no complaints but just wondered about these.

I have a 2015 Ram 1500 Sport with projector headlights. What are the best bulbs for the brightest light?

I'm unsure what bulbs to get to replace my Phillips X-treme Vision +130%. I would prefer a white light and a beam which reaches farthest. Am I needing LED's to achieve this or is there a halogen suitable? If you have any suggestions I would appreciat it.

Order a new headlight assembly for 2014 Grand Cherokee. It came with Au-Lite H11 12V 55W 2K9 (E4) . It's span is wide and bright. What light is equivalent to this? I can't find this bulb.

I’m late here, good video very informative. I’m looking to upgrade some oem halogens on my truck. I don’t want to be blinding other drivers on the road. Will any of these work well with reflector capsules and not be a blinding issue for other drivers? Will the new bulbs still function with the DRL? Thanks for any help.

i bought the night breaker by osram they are a little brighter than stock but same color i need brighter, gonna get the sylvania zxe

How can you say a bulb is less/more bright than an OEM bulb when OEM bulbs differ from vehicle to vehicle?

The PIAA Extreme White bulbs are 4000K. They are whiter than OEM and bright as hell. Expensive for halogens, but worth it.

Hey bud, I have a 595 abarth and it doesn’t have xenons, I want natural xenon looking bulbs, which do I go for?

What do you recommend for headlight with lens? Does exist some legal LED in 2020? Still not? if not please tell me if exist some bulb that give me more modern look and more birghter? I don't mind price can be up to 100 bucks. :)

Hi, I want to put one of these on my 4 series fog light, which one do you think would match the Xenon HID headlight?

Which H15 bulbs would you recommend for Audi A1 2021. In my car the h15’s is one bulbs but it acts as daytime and full beams also, and that lasts long. Any advice?

I was going to buy Firehawk headlights but they cost close to a $100 dollars so I got the knight hawk headlights in stead

when you say ‘dimmer’ do you mean in terms of the distance the light reaches?

Loving your channel. I’m having a hard time deciding between the silverstar ZXE’s that you have in your car vs the GE nighthawk which wins highest in brightness. Any thoughts on the comparison?

Great video. Would love to see an update!

Hi I'm really having trouble finding these bulbs even with your link I can find the cool blue but not hyper+ only cool blue intense??

Hey buddy, Which are the whitest and brightest h1 halogen bulbs? I have the Osram Night Breakers but their yellow, Not white all all.

I totally agree about the number 1 spot, I had them for about a year and a half, they both went out this week a couple of days apart, so the lifespan is not that long, but that is what you have to deal with if you go for these types of bulbs. The whiteness was superb, i have tried a few of these and osrams hyper blue are definitelly the best in terms of color. I put them in my 2006 hyundai getz and it looked amazing! :) The downside on these is the fact that they are not considered road legal, it also said that on the pack - "off road use only" , so you can't pass car inspection, because they are too white for the cars factory standarts, so you have to change them for the inspection, at least here ir Latvia. For me it's not a big deal, because the access to them is quite easy, but a thing to consider for others :) Overall, I love them, gives a good, clean, crisp look to the car, polish your headlights and it's gonna be amazing! :)

Quick question: Are those universal lights? I got a Skoda Fabia 5J 2017 and I am interested in buying Xenon headlights. Also, I want to purchase low and high beam lights. Those would be different types, is that right?

I have tinted headlights and my oem yellow bulbs look really dim now , what is the best route for me to take ? LED HID or stay with a hologen bulb? I have a reflector housing unit

Hella hands down

What bulbs do I need for our vw passat 2016 model daytime running lights

Hi! I have 9005/9006 lightbulbs in my car so my question is are there any 9005/9006 lightbulbs that are equivalent to H7 GE Nighthawk Sport bulbs that you presented?

Man the osram goes for 30 bucks.. I bought some silverstar ultra frok autozone for frigging 60 bucks. Would you pay that price...? I still have them not installed yet. Let me know so I can return them asap.

What’s the life on the Osram hyper? And the ZXE? My lows are daytime runners...which I hate.

i have ordered osram cool blue intense new gen... but now im reading that they are not so bright should i be worried?

Are this Lights looking White or more yellow ? And can The Osram one can cause damage ?

Great video

I have a 2014 VW GLI with a xenon projector headlights since I can't replace the head light I'm looking to replace the high beams and fog lights. But I want them to match my xenon projectors head lights what do u recommend I do not want 3 different colors trying to get the clean look all matching

Hi this is Robert could you tell me if these bulbs you tested have a blueish color at all

Hey, i have a 2018 tacoma and they have halogen projectors, do you think the zx3's can shoot out further (throw?), than diode dynamics SL1 or supernova v4 led's? Ive read that led's do not shine out as far in these projectors, so im leaning towards higher end halogens (looking for a whiter light too). Thanks

Great video! Can I get that HID look for my high beams with these bulbs?

Great video, very informative, thanks mate!

What would I use for a 2001 Kia Optima SE V6? I want a really bright one

LEDs don’t shine right on my h7 projector headlights, will halogen be better since they are round?

I have just fitted the Osram cool blue not the hyper blue and TBH I think they are rubbish I used to light the nightbreakers by Osram

Thanks for another helpful video 👍🏻 just subscribed

What would you recommend for a 2017 Camaro? I want some lights that will match the color of my DRL. Don't know if I should stick to halogen or switch to LEDs.

So, I didn't understand, which the whitest bulb your recommend?

First I love all your reviews, keep it up! Second, can you review the Phillips race vision, according to the chart on your website, they seem to be more of the sweet spot than the ZXE's. They are brighter but only barely less white. Thanks!

What about the Osram cool blue boost bulbs? Hope to see some new videos soon!

The ones that came in first place how long do they last ???? I think there the tru blue

What bulbs would you recommend for a 2009 Chevy Impala

Isn't the Osram Nightbreaker Unlimited the brightest?

ty!! How long do the ZXE last for low beams? CC

I want to put the osrams in my volkswagen polo 2015, which ones do i need to buy that fit in

Hello. Which bulb would you go with if you want that stock xenon white bulb with no blue or yellow look to them??

hi am driving honda civic 2014 hatchback do i need a converter to buy the osram hyper blue or it will fit just perfectly ? i hope u can help me with this !

What's the usual lifespan irl in terms of months or years of this ZXE?

Between two ferns 😄😄😄 good review

The ZXE worked well for me for over 2 years..

What’s the best light overall when it comes to longevity?

Geting osram cool blue intense tomorrow we shall see

Would it be logical to upgrade to a 90/100w average priced halogen bulbs to get the desired brightness?

I'm struggling to find the the Osram Hyper Cool Blue "Hyper+" (Hyper White) anywhere - only find the Osram Cool Blue "Boost" or "Intense" (Hyper Blue). Does anyone know if these are the same - just re-branded with different name?
