Hey guys, my neighbor is selling me a pair for 80 bucks but they are no name lol, what i would like to know is that are there any differences between brand names and not?

 

80 is too much for non-branded

Go for some Kaixens or McCulloughs, they offer quality products.

No brands have no warranty and I've heard of cases in which one light was brighter or a different shade.

 

Phillips or Osram only. Anything else will not last.

 

Xetronics....

 

The beauty about Acurazine forum is how active our veteran members are, so if you take just a little time searching the forum, not only you will learn everything there is to know about HID and a TL, but you will also find pictures, comparisons and user reviews on all the brands, which will allow you to make your own decision.

Phlips/Osram - stock brands, can't beat them in durability.

Kaixen and Xetronic are the only other brands I would use if you want the best 6000K looking HID, again these are second to stock durability, but do provide a nice bluer hue.

 

kaixen are supposed to last 3000 hours, about what the stock bulbs did- but with better vision the whole time- Kaixen is the International Lighting research facility in korea and has several patents on the special sauce they make bulbs with.
A ziner was able to read their real homepage in korean- and got lots of good background info- they rock!--
thanks US subsidies to developing countries- your tax dollars hard at work overseas~

Color=
stock was 4300K rating, k =Kelvin - a rating scale 3000 is yellow 5000 blue-8000 purple
5000 gives a little more blue- excellent choiuce for most drivers
6000 more blue with loss of some white directly in front of the car

Our sponsoring vendor -- Excelerate -- has the killer deal on Kaixen 5000 or 6000
A PAIR of new bulbs for $109 shipped!
not listed on his main site- only in the ziner Sponsored Sales area or PM or call him direct

 

The 4300s are proven to put out the most light, are very close to natural daylight,are the least fatiguing on the eyes, also less glare for oncoming drivers. Any other "color" will put out less light. I won't sacrifice light output for the ricer blue color. There really is nothing better than our stock bulbs.
