- Taking a look at the original style LED headlight vs the NEW 2nd Gen Style LED headlight for the BMW F800gs. The old style LED headlight was purchased from Alibaba online and the NEW style one was from Audexen on Amazon which you can buy at the links below:

UPDATE:
The new LED headlight kept giving off the headlight error message no matter what i tried so i ended up selling it and kept the old led style one in instead with no issues so far at all.
Nice comparison!
Hello. Greetings from the Philippines. I would like to ask if when did the "LAMP" warning on your dash board appeared? Was it immediately after you installed the AUDEXEN LED headlight or did it take sometime for your bike to recognize the issue? Thank you....
Hello, I have this error in my gs 800, and I would know from where I can get this decoder? And is it working well?
I ordered it using the link in your description and mine came with a cable sticking out of the back and the plug. So the plug is not built in the headlight assembly. Also, it came with soft washers that have adhesive on one side instead of the hard washers. I am thinking of returning it and try to find the one where the plug is build into the headlight assembly.
Thank you for review, we will provide the decoder if the error code happen, and with no cost.
Contact me on Facebook Messenger "Temptation2003" i could use one and will post a review on how it works.
did you solve the error code issue?
Great review! thanks. will be great if can compare with OEM headlight on fixed expositions.
Either one of these is much better than the stock halogen headlight.
@@Temptation_Offroad Not will be sure on in, while halogen light color spectre is more wided then LED, and on some night condition (rain, light fog, other headlights) its very important.
I have the older LED style and the is no comparison to the OEM headlights. I'm happy with mine, but the new version look like it's a little better that the older one. My OEM headlight started to go through H7 bulbs pretty quick, now I don't have to worry about it anymore.
Jesus that computer setup 🤤
Haha, my pride and joy Lol. Thanks! 🔥😎
Can anyone comment as to the difference between the Matt Gecko, cpowace and the sautvs brands ??

Thank you for the great video. After using it for some time, any updates? Which of the two is better?
I like the older LED one better. It doesnt give off any headlight error messages and lights up just the same. Still working good. I sold the new LED one.
@@Temptation_Offroad Thanks. I ll order the old one then!
@@cchrist0f97 Welcome! 🤝🏽
Curious how you're switching between running lights and low beam. I'm not seeing that option on my 2013 F800GS
@@nathankuder9026 DRL is one when the bike is off but the key is in the on position without the motor running.
I think the "old style" or whatever looks better anyway
I agree, i might get it
how many kilometers do you have on your GS? found your channel back when you were fitting that Givi windschield
Maybe 3000 miles
@@Temptation_Offroad so almost new, you not riding it much?
@@johndoe-pm7up Nope, after I bought it I've been working away from home all summer with no time to ride it. Hopefully, this coming summer I will have more time. Still love the bike though.
@@Temptation_Offroad I see. I had the impression you own the bike forever.
Спасибо за видео, бро, как раз искал в чем разница и нужно ли покупать новую модель фары
На мой взгляд, светодиодная фара старой модели работает так же хорошо, если не лучше, чем новая модель. Новая модель выглядит красиво, но постоянно выдает сообщение об ошибке фар.
Very interesting, thanks! I see that the Audexen is DOT compliant and has E-mark for EU. That's very good to know. However, the fault light concerns me a bit, so please keep us posted on how that goes.
Yeah will do, the fault light sounds like an issue with most 2nd gen LED headlights due to the led drawing such low power the bike thinks a bulb is burnt out and thus trips the error code. I've read that they make a decoder to fix the issue or you can just run it that way with no issues from what others have said.
@@Temptation_Offroad I think you're right about the power draw. The ECU checks some things, perhaps resistance and then amperage when it's on. An in line resistor might be OK, but it's still a bit of a hack. No idea what a decoder would be. The GS-911, as far as I've seen, has no capability to alter anything about the headlight.
Thanks again!
@@JockeSelin hi Jocke, after countless hours of watching you doing things(and of course washing them) I am delighted to see you in the comments. I thought you abandoned the GS in lieu of your new camper(it is wild, thanks for posting those videos too).
@@johndoe-pm7up hey! The GS isn't abandoned, ignored, yes, for sure, but we still love our GS' and try to keep an eye on the GS community. Sadly, one only has limited time, so some interests will have to be ignored once in a while. 😊
@@JockeSelin thank you for all your GS videos Jocke! straight to the point, entertaining. Everytime I wash a part of my bike I hear your voice saying "once taken off it must be cleaned" :)
"Old style' is like OEM LED light on 1200 GS. "New style" is too much "China design"😁
Yeah, i swapped back to the Old style LED headlight. Still works great and no error light on the dash either.
