    Been running H9 in lieu of H11 since one of my Morimoto 2 Strokes burnt out. Vey impressed with the output and it’s lasted as long as I’ve had 2 Strokes. Finally upgraded to H11 Xtreme LED pros because of the fan less option. It was truly the best bang for your buck. 👍

      The Xtreme LEDs are a great option if you're worried about fan failure, glad you found a good replacement!

    I have Phillips H9 bulbs in my Tacoma that come with H11 bulbs for the low.beams, the fitment of the three prongs is the same , just have to trim out the top small tab in the connector of the H9 to fit in the H11 plug , better and brighter light 👍

  • @hendrylyly3662

    Are H11, H9 and H8 the same? Yes, H11, H9, and H8 are the same bulbs they just carry different part numbers, positions, and default wattages for standard halogen bulb replacements. Aside from these minor differences, all three are identical on every other front from size and shape to locking tabs and connectors

    Any chance you guys could revisit D1S Led bulbs? They’re all over the internet now and a lot of plug & play options. I’d love to get your updated opinion before I decide to give them a try over my current osrams.

  • @lee99lee99
    @lee99lee99 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    but if you put a more powerful (65w) bulb instead of a 35w bulb won't damage something in that light housing (like the inner part of it,the reflective mirror)?

    • @HeadlightRevolution
      @HeadlightRevolution  ปีที่แล้ว

      You would only have to worry about heat damage with higher-wattage HIDs - the most you have to worry about with higher-wattage halogen bulbs is poor reliability. More wattage typically means a shorter lifespan.

    I do have a Chevy TrailBlazer that'd like to upgrade from their awful halogen low light.
    Would you recommend a real 1:1 9000/HB3 led replacement for both low light and high beam?

    • @HeadlightRevolution
      @HeadlightRevolution  17 วันที่ผ่านมา

      In the case of the 2021 Chevy TrailBlazer, the low beam is actually a 9005 bulb, and the high beam is an H9. For an LED upgrade, we’d recommend either GTR Lighting LEDs or Morimoto 2Strokes - they’re excellent options for both performance and longevity. You can find the options here:

    I currently use a Toyota Camry 2006 Model America Spec..please I'd like to know the following:
    1: What is the best Head Light Bulb Brand or top 3/5 head light bulb brand
    2: When I drive at night, my car light bulb is never bright, do I change the entire head light housing or just the bulb? What do I do?
    3: My car head light housing is dull and the front glass is dull, does this affect the light brightness? Please what do I do? Do I change the entire house

    • @HeadlightRevolution
      @HeadlightRevolution  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      1. Morimoto Lighting, GTR Lighting, SV4, Philips
      2. How old is your current bulb? What are the condition of the lenses? Is the bowl burnt?
      Try replacing the bulb first, and then go from there!
      3. Yes, a hazy lens will make light output worse. You can either re-finish the headlight lens or replace the headlight altogether.

    I have a 2020 Nissan rogue, I need to buy the low and high beam headlight bulbs LED (set of 4)my question:; is there a difference between the high and low beam bulbs, I know that the brightness is normally different between them, but is it because the bulb itself is more powerful and brighter, or it is the shape of the light housing itself is what makes the light brighter when it reflects. Anyone knows?
    Thanks

    • @HeadlightRevolution
      @HeadlightRevolution  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The low beam uses an H11 bulb type, the high beam uses H9. If you're replacing them with LEDs, it would all be the same size - H11.

      H16 is also cross-compatible with H8/H9/H11, the major difference being the wattage. H8, H9, and H11 all run above 35W, whereas the H16 is much lower at around 20W - not nearly bright enough for headlight usage.

    • @VoltisArt
      @VoltisArt 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Why Joel's advise matters: Electrical devices with different wattages are more dependent on the device, not the power source. A lower wattage device will run normally in a high-watt situation, while a high-wattage device can burn out lower-watt lines and fuses, and even start fires. Before upgrading, be sure your fixture and wiring (all the way to the source, depending on your application) support _at least_ the wattage of your device.
      Think of it this way: The power source does not _push_ power to the device, the device _pulls_ power from the source. If it pulls too hard, bad things can happen. This is why tiny night lights are fine in your home's wall socket, but a big guitar amp might burn the socket or blow a fuse. The device is usually fine in both cases.
