My wife recently said the same thingg! It's great when Northridge 4X4 can help me keep my Jeep and my wife happy!

 

Ok, I've searched and read through this thread and can't seem to find the answers to my question.


How many lumen's are the stock bulbs and how many lumen's are these going to be? If you don't have it in lumen's, how about candella?


Wattage, like mentioned earlier, means nothing other than how hungry the bulbs are. It doesn't give any indication of light output. For example compare a 15w incandescent bulb to a 15w compact florescent. The 15w florescent puts out more light than a 50w incandescent bulb.

 

I just ordered mine!

 

I may be mistaken but I belive the Improvement has more to do with" Beam Pattern" than power.

 

If that's the case, then I'll just do the Stern kit later. He's using different bulbs in his kit so I was under the assumption he was actually outputting more luminosity at the same wattage due to changing the bulbs.

 

stock H13 is like 800/1200 lumens. The headlight conversions all convert the headlamp to a H4 based set up.

Stock H4 is 1000/1650 lumens. The osrams I have 80/85 watts put out 1750/2400 lumens. (HID puts out 3200 lumens).

My current IPF fatboys X4 in blue put out about 1200/1800 lumens with a blueish tinge. The osrams were WAY brighter.

 

So I can expect about a 20% improvement in luminosity over the factory bulbs with a tighter lighting pattern. Not to shabby.

Those Osrams are WICKED bright but they're also a much hotter bulb and would require the stern wiring kit. That being said it's a 100% improvement in luminosity!

 

These lights are bad on the JK. Since june of 07 when I got my jeep I have run with the fog lights on. I am tired of cars and trucks blinding me with there lights. Pay back time. haha

 

Completely agree....the 2010s aren't any better, either.

 

Working on getting Some Numbers for everybody but wanted to let you know the bulbs are finally up so you can see them .
