do you guys get less light output out of the 6000K? I just want this confirmed because I read that you actually get less visible light out of them, but they just look cooler.

As of now, although I didn't purchase the 6000k, I'm happy with what I have... Perhaps I'll take it in to a more serious consideration in a year or two.

So the 6000K bulbs look more like Audi's and BMW's HID lights? Do those 6000K bulbs stay blue even after they warm up?

they actually come from and are manufactured in Germany where all the precise $hit is made...nobody makes more precise objects than the German's and cost cutting really isnt a concern to get the job done...these are quality bulbs and are not meant for the U.S. market...Not many people have them, so its kind of like an origonality thing for me...the talk about the 7000K and 10000Kelvin bulbs is cool, but until philips of germany decides to manufacture it, i wont buy it...Simple as that...Shyne
