I have the Lastfit LS Plus H13 9008 in my 2013 F150 and WOW! They are super bright 🔆 the cut off is amazing! I had too bring them way down to not blind oncoming traffic. I live in the country and drive against traffic on my way too work and back home. And unfortunately I work at night. I commute 50 miles a day all night drives. And I can see everything in front of me. From side to side. Truly amazing light pattern.

Thank you @CarLightReviews for some great content! It is great to know that the fans and heatsinks really do help to keep bulbs cool, and that keeps them efficient and no doubt gives them a longer lifespan. I appreciate your advice about always using the dust cap if possible to keep dirt and grime out of the headlight assembly. One thing I have to ask is this: The massive heatsink / fan units being tested appear to be tested in standalone or freestanding mode. That gives the fan an unlimited supply of cool air to circulate. I only base this assumption upon the pics shown in your earlier videos when you show the projector lens portion of a Camry headlight, mounted on a tripod for your test environment. If the bulb assemblies are plugged into sealed headlight assemblies and covered with a dust cap, won't that affect the cooling ability of the fans & heatsinks? For example if there is only 1/10 cu ft of air inside a headlight assembly, how long until the air is heated to the point that it affects the 27 minute lux rate of the bulbs? Would it still show percentage rate of 93? To sum it up, do the cooling fans still ensure the same 93% efficiency when enclosed inside a headlight assembly or are cooling fans just distractions for a best case scenario score? Thanks again!

Fair question and not uncommon. My data is to be measured against two things: 1) the baseline halogen as an upgrade, and 2) the other lights tested. I do this in a consistent environment and consistent method. Without that consistency, the data is not valid. It is impossible to factor in the inconsistencies between the thousands of different dust caps shapes, sizes, volumes, etc. as well as the inconsistencies in temperature (the numbers can be different in Arizona than what they can be in Alaska), or many, many other factors....like the fact that one person drives at 25 mph and another person drives at 75mph. Consistent testing is the key. Changing any element changes the data...and the data tells the whole story.

@CarLightReviews Жыл бұрын
I could but it would be easier for me to tell you that they simply do not work. The short reason why is that headlights are designed to capture light from a filament of a very specific shape and size at a very specific point. 360 degree headlight replacement bulbs talk a good game, but they do not replicate that filament. Standard style LED chips like the one in this video are most common for a reason, which is they come close to replicating that filament.

The brighter the led, the better the light output. And much better to see way further. Fun fact. Lasfit update this H11 pro series. Instead of 36W. It’s 50W per bulb. They already made new series called LAair but that’s when CLR test them. But that’s the old one. The newer style has a beefier heatsink and 30MM cooling fan. And now it’s also a 50W per bulb.

I don't have to check, I mention this in every video I release. I put this in the description: ▬ A NOTE ON USING LED LIGHTS AS HALOGEN BULB REPLACEMENTS ▬ Aim your headlights AT LEAST once a year and ALWAYS after replacing the bulbs. If the cutoff is bad or you can’t aim them accurately or the light output scatters, it is NOT safe to use. Try a different style of LED or one with a lower output that will be more compatible with your light housing. See my other videos for more reviews. When I use the word “headlights”, I am referring to legal off-road use or fog light use only as replacing factory halogen bulbs with LEDs for headlights in the US is not currently legal nor a DOT approved practice. This video is only for informational purposes for using LED lights legally. Check your local laws and regulations.

So what. We all know led headlight bulbs are not DOT. But that’s ok, as long as we’re not hurting anyone. We still prefer upgrade with led to see better, and be seeing better. And these will not blind others. As long as u get the correct type of led like this, fix the height of the beam pattern, and fix the orientation as well.
