and.. The Amazon ones are rated at 4000 lumans while the Hearlight revolutions are rated at 3000 lumans.. And a $100 more..


Bottom line.. The HR four bulbs are $300+ with shipping and the Amazon ones for all four are $92 shipped.. Its your $$, be wise with it.. Both made in China and most likely at the same plant...

But HR are not FOS with their watt rating, huh? LOL I gotta laugh about that. When it suits you, it's the truth, when it does not, its lies. .

No. I was mearly pointing out that you were incorrect when you said it was the exact same bulb on amazon. And when I said “both” implies both the amazon bulb and HR are fos.

For the record I have neither...I went sl1 from DD that claim lower wattage and lumen rating than those.

It is absolutely amazing how bright those are. I may have to upgrade to those eventually!

Agreed. And with 1 led chip. It’s amazing how leds have progressed through the years.

Do you know for a fact that the HR and the Amazon bulbs are not the same? Neither do I. But at $100 savings a set ill take that chance.

Hey guys, just wanted to report my individual findings. There are so many options out there it is hard to find a good one. Ideally what you want is a brighter bulb that has a very similar patter to stock, but brighter, so you are getting good coverage and not blinding oncoming drivers. Headlight Revolution offers many videos on Youtube comparing all types of LED, HID, and standard halogen offerings. They offer the most actual real world info in video form of anyone out there that I have found. Wattage rating and lumens are arbitrary as the ratings do not tell you the whole story. It's how it projects that light and how bright it actually is when projected down the road. Check these videos out:





I decided to order from HR as they seem to provide the most information of any company out there. They are they more expensive than what can be found on Ebay or other sites. But I can watch a video on how the bulb I intend to purchase actually performs against other bulbs in light pattern and actual projected lumens.

The other lights available in the market could be great and I'm sure some are. I just want to know how the bulb will perform before I buy it and HR was the only one I could find that has done actual testing that I could see and review for myself before purchasing. Hopefully the above information helps some others.
