Philips light bulbs

[XLR8]

Hi, Vision Plus is yellowish or white in colour? I am currently using this F1 Spec R bulb. Not bright at all and not very white either.

[Wykh]

Yellowish-White.

 

The throw of the light is definitely further than stock or white light (eg DiamondVision, CrystalVision)

 

If you like some white, I will rec BlueVision, one of my brudder is using it. Bluish-White and bright too.

[XLR8]

I see. Tks. But the price of bluevision is about 20 bucks more right? Quite ex I find for a bulb.

yah, so far, of all the shops i visited. Only Autobacs has the HB4 Vision Plus. Btw, u guys if not sure which one is whitest, or brightest. They do have a counter there for u to press to see the performance of each Philips bulb.

Diamond Vision is whitest, but not the brightest...

 

If you want bright, go for Vision Plus, but it's more yellowish...

 

Trade off would be the Blue Vision...

 

If you're only going for looks... Then get Diamond Vision... I'm using them... Throw of light is nothing compared to Vision Plus

It is whitish-blue.

 

No, depend on your car model. What is your car make?

 

I have info for Nissan.

 

H4 for those that have hi-lo beam in a bulb.

 

HB4 for single dip beam

 

HB3 for hi beam

 

H11 for the round fog light that is introduced with the Face Lift Sunny, Face Lift Primera and the New Cefiro.

 

W5W for the small light indicator.

 

Anyone has any idea roughly how much does a H4 Philips Blue Vision cost?

Just a note of info for people who are looking to change bulbs...

 

Brightness is measured by lumens, the higher the no. the brighter it is.

For the white light effect, you will be looking at the tempreture tint. E.g: 4500K, this is the no.s that you usually see on bulb packaging.

The higher the "K", the whiter its gets.. if you notice the blue tinting on these bulbs is the main reason why it appears to be white, as the tiniting filters of the yellowish hue from normal halogen bulbs. Which also mean that the lower the "K" the more yellowish it gets.

 

The colour tempreture is a trade off for lumens(brightness), you can't expect to have the same amount of light passing through a glass when its tinted can you?

 

And if im not wrong the lumens will have the effect on how far you cab "throw" your lights.

"And if im not wrong the lumens will have the effect on how far you cab "throw" your lights."

 

Yes u r right... Same theory as Projector.

 

Thank for the info on the color temp.

BlueVision H4 is about S$55.00 before discount at MxWexx.

Old packaging w free W5W and new packaging w/o W5W is the same price.

 

Go figure which one you should get.

[Wykh]

No, confirm it is brighter than Nissan stock. One of my Sunny Bro have it in its pre-fl N16.

[Ahdi]

u mean vision plus or diamond vision.

[Wykh]

BlueVision.
