HIDs are pretty irritating for everyone if you put them in regular halogen reflectors, they need projectors to minimize glare. Also they are too bluish. Nowadays LEDs are best.
Very underrated video! The filming quality, explanation, demonstrations, various tests, etc...immaculate job! Honestly didn't expect it to be so thorough and once I started watching, thought that it's a Diode Dynamics vid, keep it up brother.
These osram led bulbs are also made in China and also sold in different branding. They aren't that good. There's false info in this video(osram vs China, these osrams are china too). Best led bulbs on market that produces best light pattern and output are morimoto 2stroke 3.0 and diode dynamics sl1 bulbs.

As others have said, fantastic method and application, well done, and much appreciated. Two things I'd mention. Cars don't run at 12v, as I'm sure you know, so real wattage should be measured with a voltage around 13.8v. This will affect the Halogen output massively. Other thing is that if (like me with my Nissan Leaf and it's LED dipped beam) you are only looking for a high beam solution then all of this worry about beam cut-off is quite irrelevant. I am of course in a tiny minority created by the crazy engineering of Nissan, but just thought I' mention it. Again, much respect for the thoroughness application and friendly presentation... Often sorely missing on the tube.

After hours watching videos of lamp reviews, I finally saw the LIGHT, Congratulations! It is by far the best information about in-car led and halogen lighting that can be found anywhere. Very educational
You should measure the power output at running voltage. While the car is running the voltage in the system is anywhere from 13V to 14V. It may be higher like 14,4V or lower like 12,8V. I checked a few and it doesn't add up to the rated spec (Osram for example). It's important to note though that the max brightness may also be limited by the available voltage, also the life span. So yeah, the best testing measure would be at something like 13,5V. That aside, as usual, very very good tests! Keep up the good work!
ndc55 a properly designed LED driver electronic circuit should ignore slight variations in input voltage. Would have been nice to just check if the wattage consumed changes with higher voltage.
This is by far the best testing design I've ever seen! Please do some of the more common bulbs like Hikari Ultra, Auxito y13, Supernova S V.4, GT-R Ultra, DDM, etc.
^ +1, Definitely agree, especially on the Y13, S-V4 (maybe throw a few clones of the S-V4 in the mix like Katana, Nineo, PrecisionLED Kepler, F2), and Ultra 2. A few others I would add are Diode Dynamics SL-1, Morimoto 2 Stroke 2.0, and F3.
@Andrew Schwab Done proper testing on them yourself (beam pattern, output, etc, etc. [basically what Sergiu has done here in this vid])? They're also a possible clone of the Ultra 2. The info that Bulb Facts has on them is pretty helpful but not exactly conclusive as they didn't test it against some of the previously mentioned bulbs.
Thanks for your videos. I just bought 3 different led bulbs for my Santa Fe and after testing them I found the oem halogen to be brightest and had the best beam pattern. My previous cars and truck all had reflector type and did benefit putting in led’s. After watching your video I was very surprised by the results for projector type lights. I’m going to watch your video on the halogen bulbs. Great information. Thanks.
OMG ! I was blown away buy the details you provided in this video and I love how much effort you put in this videos for such a small channel ! Thumbs up for that dude...
You're right with the importance of correct focus. If those 360° degree leds had better focus, they maybe could be used into separate high beams, like H3 or H1, where you basically use them on full blast for short periods of time 😉 I wan thinking about this - tried 2 sided led in the high beams and they were dimmer than halogens...
Nice round-up and measurements! I would like to add a point for winter driving, halogens have high heat output that melts the ice and snow from the glass of the headlamp. If you change a cooler led and face difficult conditions, you could lose almost all of your light until you go outside and clean the headlights.
Still the most thorough lighting test on TH-cam yet. I prefer the ToAuto in a high beam reflector for the way it fills the road scape to the very edges like the others cannot. High beams are never used aimed against oncoming traffic anyway. It may even match stock alignment better in my high beam reflector rather than the one tested.
For the reflector headlight the bulbs that are in my opinion the closest possible to the halogen bulb are the Osram and the Nighteye. The Bevinsee has excesive glare over the pattern even if it has the best cut from the bunch
Great test! One of the most comprehensive test regiments out there! I would suggest for future tests that the orientation of the bulbs as they are installed within the reflector/projectors, should be taken into consideration. Particularly the bulbs using chips on two opposite sides. Projectors, despite their name, do use a reflector to collect and direct light through the lens and the direction the chips happen to face when installed could potentially make a significant difference in beam patterns, overall performance and ultimately test results. I look forward to more from your channel! Especially with Chinese products since they are exceptionally less expensive. Thank you! Really... thank you for your work and tests!! Very helpful!
Sergiu, incredible, how much work and effort you put into this test. This is comparable to a serious german Auto Motor & Sport test or even better, since they would not consider the chinese LED for testing. Really superb work. Thumbs up!
The Bevinsee still bleeds too much in a projector, especially above the cutout. You can have a lot of lux in a halogen but it is directed on the right spots. Great review nonetheless. As for the halogen one not holding out in the water test, did you plunge it while hot or started it underwater?
I’m curious to see if the Xtreme Vision line would react the same. Philips themselves show that you can throw water on it while it’s running and it won’t shatter 🤔
Whats funny is everyone says "dont put xenons or leds in reflectors befause itll blind people" also have brand new cars with projectors and leds blinding everyone and theyre legal!
When I saw you are Romanian like me at the beginning of the video I was not expecting much information, Romanians usually don't know how to make a good quality video. I was very nice impressed by you and the quality of the video and the information in the video by the end of the video. You got my like and subscribe. Keep doing an amazing job!
You didn't calculate the efficiency correctly. For example, "Garbage": Cold: 12V 1,78A 8.269 Lx - 387 Lx/W Hot: 12V 1.19A 4.200 Lx - 294 Lx/W That is about 50% of light output decrease, but the efficiency decrease is 24%.
That was an amazing video. I appreciate all the work that you put into your review, tests, and, most of all, presentation of the products and results. It doesn't even seem like you are trying to sell anything (am I right?). I like how you presented a ton of meaningful information very concisely, and you still remained a human being and not a robot. I also appreciate that you focused on the purpose of your video to provide excellent information about the products instead of on yourself as the product.

Excellent review thank you for the education and technology you provide. I would really like to have seen that you have reviewed two other quality aftermarket companies in your test: Morimoto 2Stroke 2.0 GTR Lighting Ultra 2
Those are the same seller in the USA that is selling good LED but at RIP off prices, with aliexpress you can buy it for $20 than paying $120-$200 for the same thing!!!
George, With all due respect I took your advice and purchased the Bevinse bulbs. I also purchased the GTR Ultra 2. I was amazed at the difference. They are not the same bulbs as you stated nor do they come from the same manufacture. In addition the GTR ultra 2 bulbs are manufactured and built with extreme high-quality, fit and finish and the ability to adjust the beam pattern by turning the bulb in a bearing sleeve that allows for optimum sharp cut off beam pattern. The GTR bulbs were also much much brighter. My suggestion and constructive feedback, would be for you to actually have the bulbs in your hand where you can actually experience what I have experienced instead of making a blanket statement that the bulbs come from the same place and are all the same. Again I appreciate what you’re doing on your channel and hope that this feedback is taken in a positive manner. Thank you

I couldn't believe that someone took their time and tested something as LED headlights with such scrutiny. Well done. ;-)
Vehicles using a bcm or intelligent fuse block like a central gateway or totally integrated power module. Roughly most vehicles for the past 20 years use a regulated set voltage from a solid state high side driver. So the voltage is a regulated X. It could be 12v 13.5v or charging voltage. However the vehicle is configured
Excellent review. Only you should consider using something like 13 volts or even 13.5 volts, to stimulate what would actually be in an automobile. The halogen would be quite a bit better at the higher voltage.
Watched this video in a squint. Just getting my eye lids ready for the squinting i have to do once people put these on their bikes/cars. These things should be outlawed to be honest. So damned bright it hurts eyes and makes it so all you see is the star effects around the light.
That's only an issue if the bulbs are poorly designed, improperly installed, or the headlights aren't aimed correctly. Most of the bulbs in this test are cheap crap that I've never even heard of. But even so, you can clearly see in this test how the good quality LEDs don't output much light above the cutoff (especially with projectors). There's nothing inherent about LEDs that make them blinding. Most new cars come with them from the factory. Just don't buy no-name junk and neglect to aim them properly.
@@Nayr747 "Most new cars come with them from the factory" - show me a car which comes with a POS LED bulbs in H socket from a factory. They are all a one piece units.
can you make a video on the brand new Osram nightbreaker h7 LED ??? those are roadlegal led bulbs for reflector and projector headlights... they came out a few days ago in germany and got tested and avalidatet so its legal to use in some cars as they havent done testing to many cars yet.
@@aldeacristian4582 14+ volti nu ajung la bec, dar un 13,5-13,8 tot ajunge. Voltajul suplimentar ajuta insa doar becurile halogen, chiar mult, pe cand intensitatea led-urilor va ramane la fel. A demonstat chiar si Sergiu chestia asta in videoul precedent.
It's pretty simple: The voltage that the alternator puts out is the voltage that your car will be operating on. In my measured opinion that is 13.8 Volt. 12.8 Volt is what a fully charged battery has to measure after having it get settled after charging.
you are the new project farm channel for europe, i cannot tell, how much i waited for it to test eu products. keep it up with these detailed videos, i wish you as subcribers as him in Usa.
Surprisingly proffessionally made, very entertaining to watch, and on top of that extremly helpful for my decision-making. Thank you very much for making and sharing :-)
Awesome informed and quantitative review! Nowadays on the Internet you almost entirely find qualitative reviews based on personal opinions. This was a different one. Congrats!
After studying a number (if not all) of the H3 comparison videos, with the goal of replacing the Halogen incandescent elements of HELLA 160 with less current hungry LED based elements, I must add my high compliments for this presentation. Your comparison is by far the (very) best and most scientific comparison and presentation and THE ONLY comparison where critical position of the Halogen element above the mounting plane (18mm, focal point for optics) for H3 is even mentioned. I must still compare space/volume available for any possible LEDs, plus consider thermal rejection to keep LED cool and from going into limiting/dimming, and I welcome any LED based suggestions from you, but even if I find there is no suitable LED option, and must remain with the incandescent version, I will check some of your other videos...I expect they will also be done to a similar very high standard! Thanks Sergiu and Greets from Connecticut!
Great review. There were aspects of tests here that I never see in other videos like distance comparisons and reflector vs projector output comparisons. Also seemed to be very unbiased. Keep up the good work. 👍🏼
there is also the fact that if your in the UK the LED in the projector is less likely to get you an MOT failure than in the reflector due to beam cuttoff
@@benjamindavies1188 thanks for the reply. I'm in the US but passed state inspection with Hikari bulbs in both Io and hi beams on reflectors. They are very very good bulbs
Was actually going to buy a HLXG led bulb. Thanks for teling me its garbage. Now im convinced the only option to go is retrofitting xenonprojector headlights on my car.
1/ Must run test at least 14V as this is the charging voltage when a car is running. 2/ Your thin PSU cables will insert losses, please use better cables and also check the voltage at lamp for voltage drop.
Salut, Sergiu! As vrea sa schimb xenonurile de pe al meu a4 b9 cu niste becuri led pentru ca sunt cam galbene. Xenonurile vechi sunt de 25w. Pot folosi in siguranta niste leduri de 35w in locul becurilor xenon de 25w deoarece nu prea gasesc leduri de 25. Multumesc.
This is what I call LED test hahahaha Awesome job man!!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Unfortunately in Brazil we don’t have all this options of LEDs , but the funny is that I found here those exactly same shapes of LEDs however with another brand name... So as almost all of the LEDs are made in China i don’t know if all have the same quality...
this is the best review of bevinsee v35 model bulbs ( every other review uses either v55 or v45 i notice ), and in projector headlight units was my particular problem with some bubls i tested not getting any good light output at night. I am glad bevinsee works great in projector units from seeing your review and soon will receive that specific model to install to my car.
I never seen such a detailed review like this! I hope you can also compare them with HIDs. Cheers
Will do. I'll need a new headlight design for HIDs first 😄

In defense of this approach, 12V is the nominal system voltage, and the lamps should be able to operate properly at 12V
Vehicles using a bcm or intelligent fuse block like a central gateway or totally integrated power module. Roughly most vehicles for the past 20 years use a regulated set voltage from a solid state high side driver. So the voltage is a regulated X. It could be 12v 13.5v or charging voltage. However the vehicle is configured
Current draw would be less, because it has step down converter maintaining same power.
Good point
That's a good point 😉
Excellent review. Only you should consider using something like 13 volts or even 13.5 volts, to stimulate what would actually be in an automobile. The halogen would be quite a bit better at the higher voltage.
Watched this video in a squint. Just getting my eye lids ready for the squinting i have to do once people put these on their bikes/cars. These things should be outlawed to be honest. So damned bright it hurts eyes and makes it so all you see is the star effects around the light.
That's only an issue if the bulbs are poorly designed, improperly installed, or the headlights aren't aimed correctly. Most of the bulbs in this test are cheap crap that I've never even heard of. But even so, you can clearly see in this test how the good quality LEDs don't output much light above the cutoff (especially with projectors). There's nothing inherent about LEDs that make them blinding. Most new cars come with them from the factory. Just don't buy no-name junk and neglect to aim them properly.
@@Nayr747 how dare you assume people will give a rats ass about other motorists.
@@Nayr747 "Most new cars come with them from the factory" - show me a car which comes with a POS LED bulbs in H socket from a factory. They are all a one piece units.
can you make a video on the brand new Osram nightbreaker h7 LED ??? those are roadlegal led bulbs for reflector and projector headlights... they came out a few days ago in germany and got tested and avalidatet so its legal to use in some cars as they havent done testing to many cars yet.
"bata-te dumniezo" :) tare faza.
I love stumbling upon random reviewers who go all-in with their test methodology. The grid maps are really nice.
The tests were performed at 12v while the voltage would be 14v+ in a car.
Serios? Faptul ca alternatorul scoate 13.8 - 14.5 v pe incarcare, nu inseamna ca pe firele catre consumatori ajunge 14+v
@@aldeacristian4582 14+ volti nu ajung la bec, dar un 13,5-13,8 tot ajunge. Voltajul suplimentar ajuta insa doar becurile halogen, chiar mult, pe cand intensitatea led-urilor va ramane la fel. A demonstat chiar si Sergiu chestia asta in videoul precedent.
True. The operational voltage when car is running is 14.2 V. Even the voltage of car battery when car is off is 13.2 V.
You sir, literally tested everything I wanted to! Considered starting a channel but this is super impressive. Got yourself a sub and a LOT of sharing
gotta love a good ol butthole joke when you're watching a headlight review haha
OMG the amount of work done.... RESPECT
You should test car bulbs at 14V, not 12V.
Not true, 12.8V is the most accurate voltage that the bulbs use. Cars use smart alternators.
@@frozenwitcher LOL, smart alternators. xD
How about you measure the battery voltage when the engine is running? It will be about 14.2V or so.
You gotta learn buddy. Read about the smart alternators, there are no more fixed voltage ones.
@@frozenwitcher LOL, you don't have a clue. xD
It's pretty simple:
The voltage that the alternator puts out is the voltage that your car will be operating on.
In my measured opinion that is 13.8 Volt.
12.8 Volt is what a fully charged battery has to measure after having it get settled after charging.
The rated output is at 14.3V -14.8V because that's the voltage used to charge the battery from the alternator

you are the new project farm channel for europe, i cannot tell, how much i waited for it to test eu products. keep it up with these detailed videos, i wish you as subcribers as him in Usa.
I have philips ultinon extreme.It's better than Osram.
I just got some for my mondeo mk 5 im hoping they are good being the price lol
Old models f5 are better 😜
This is an amazing video!! Above and beyond the quality I was expecting, you just earned a sub!
They all blind other drivers, no matter the make.
and destroys your Halogen Headlight.
@@manfredgeorgburggraf533how come?
By far the best LED bulb review video on TH-cam. Well done!
You just saved me €100.. already orderd the osram so now I am sending it back and ordered the bevinsee
Surprisingly proffessionally made, very entertaining to watch, and on top of that extremly helpful for my decision-making. Thank you very much for making and sharing :-)
Felicitari, pentru domunentar!
Imi place modul cum explicati fiecare produs, detaliat pe intelesul tuturor!
Ai muncit ceva la acest video. Felicitarile mele! 💪
Conținut de calitate!
Bravo!!! Nu cred ca am vazut un alt canal TH-cam cu atat de multe detali. 👍👍👍👍👍
Awesome informed and quantitative review! Nowadays on the Internet you almost entirely find qualitative reviews based on personal opinions. This was a different one. Congrats!
După primele 2 minute am dat subscribe si mă declar fan! Ești foarte tare omule!
After studying a number (if not all) of the H3 comparison videos, with the goal of replacing the Halogen incandescent elements of HELLA 160 with less current hungry LED based elements, I must add my high compliments for this presentation. Your comparison is by far the (very) best and most scientific comparison and presentation and THE ONLY comparison where critical position of the Halogen element above the mounting plane (18mm, focal point for optics) for H3 is even mentioned. I must still compare space/volume available for any possible LEDs, plus consider thermal rejection to keep LED cool and from going into limiting/dimming, and I welcome any LED based suggestions from you, but even if I find there is no suitable LED option, and must remain with the incandescent version, I will check some of your other videos...I expect they will also be done to a similar very high standard! Thanks Sergiu and Greets from Connecticut!
OMG ! this is THE BEST REVIEW i have ever seen on youtube ! Man ! You just blew my mind, please keep doing those kind of review Mr. Engineer
Felicitari pentru numarul mare de view-uri si calitatea materialelor!
Great review. There were aspects of tests here that I never see in other videos like distance comparisons and reflector vs projector output comparisons. Also seemed to be very unbiased. Keep up the good work. 👍🏼
there is also the fact that if your in the UK the LED in the projector is less likely to get you an MOT failure than in the reflector due to beam cuttoff
@@benjamindavies1188 thanks for the reply. I'm in the US but passed state inspection with Hikari bulbs in both Io and hi beams on reflectors. They are very very good bulbs
Was actually going to buy a HLXG led bulb. Thanks for teling me its garbage. Now im convinced the only option to go is retrofitting xenonprojector headlights on my car.
Wow, Sergiu goes way beyond explaining the experiment's, and explains them so easily that a dummy like me can understand. Great video.
Very very good review! Had never seen a review like this before. Direct, objective an clear with all topic that interest us.
1/ Must run test at least 14V as this is the charging voltage when a car is running. 2/ Your thin PSU cables will insert losses, please use better cables and also check the voltage at lamp for voltage drop.
Salut, Sergiu! As vrea sa schimb xenonurile de pe al meu a4 b9 cu niste becuri led pentru ca sunt cam galbene. Xenonurile vechi sunt de 25w. Pot folosi in siguranta niste leduri de 35w in locul becurilor xenon de 25w deoarece nu prea gasesc leduri de 25. Multumesc.
Bravo Sergiu, excellent review!
And, Bafta from Canada!
This is what I call LED test hahahaha
Awesome job man!!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Unfortunately in Brazil we don’t have all this options of LEDs , but the funny is that I found here those exactly same shapes of LEDs however with another brand name... So as almost all of the LEDs are made in China i don’t know if all have the same quality...
this is the best review of bevinsee v35 model bulbs ( every other review uses either v55 or v45 i notice ), and in projector headlight units was my particular problem with some bubls i tested not getting any good light output at night. I am glad bevinsee works great in projector units from seeing your review and soon will receive that specific model to install to my car.
You worked a lot on this video man. We appreciate it!
Felicitări Sergiu! Conținut de calitate ca de fiecare data!
Excellent review. I like the way you graphed the light output. Intelligently done.
The best comparison of any product I’ve ever seen!!!Thank you.
Super tare review-ul tau, mai ales cu bulb ul spart 😄. Multă bafta mai departe, sunt cu ochii pe tine!
Superb review! One of this depth and science behind it, not trusting what is written on the box. You rocks Sergiu! Keep up the great work!
I've been using bevinsee LEDs in my cars and bikes for almost 3 years and they work amazing and with zero issues. I
That is the single best comparison video I've ever seen! Very professional!! Thank you!
I’ve bought the Osrams for a Volvo S80, they fit great and very good pattern. Thanks a lot for the review
