AUXITO 9012/HIR2 LED Headlights vs Fahren Forenner 9012/HIR2 LED Headlights

We changed out the LED bulbs on my oldest son's Chevy Volt from Fahren Forenner 9012 ( amzn.to/4bgde3E ) to AUXITO 9012 LED Headlights ( amzn.to/3y3Sj5J ).

[@Tragicmp4]

this was a perfect review and demonstration of both lights. makes it easier to choose which ones to go for! thanks man

[@SeidelRanch]

Glad it was helpful!

[@majidheidarystories]

Thank you for the video, do you what is the luminous intensity of these lights?

[@excitationofstereocilia2103]

Great review they DNT seem too bright

[@ApacheRanch]

That’s quite the improvement!

[@SeidelRanch]

Thanks. The do look a lot better and have a cleaner beam.

[@leonard4]

Did these have a lock screw to allow you to rotate the bulb to 9 & 3 (Horizontally)?

[@SeidelRanch]

Yes they do.

[@leonard4]

@@SeidelRanch Awesome, thanks! Just ordered a set.

[@kyleyang4535]

This is the review what I actually need!!

[@SeidelRanch]

Glad it helped. Thanks.

[@DrawsOnCad]

Greetings fellow Volter, any issues with heat, or the bulbs going out prematurely? Any complaints at all? Thanks!

[@SeidelRanch]

Luckily, none. They are nice and bright and don't seem to overheat even being in the light housing. So far, so good. We have 2 first-generation volts, and both of them have these leds.

[@DrawsOnCad]

@@SeidelRanchI’ll have them tomorrow.

[@wethepeople7629]

Hi Did you adjust the LED chips at 6 & 9 a clock for best light output? That’s very important for oncoming traffic and visibility.

[@SeidelRanch]

I just adjusted them per the manual.

[@littlej3777]

I think you meant 3 and 9 o clock

[@abcdfamily4486]

You will be a Volt expert in no time with all the upgrades you do.

[@SeidelRanch]

I hope not. I really hope these cars last them a long time.

[@drewcrew3298]

Nice new led lights. Are they too bright? Do people think you have your high beams on?

[@SeidelRanch]

We have not had that issue yet so I don't think so.

[@wellaintthata5047]

I like those gloves you got there.

[@SeidelRanch]

I can give them to you since you like them so much 😂. I no longer need them.

[@rmat9023]

what kind of gloves are you using?

[@SeidelRanch]

Was I wearing gloves? If so, it was the ones they came with.

[@darklying8825]

Not the fairest of comparisons, because you are comparing older tech with new technology, hence the reason why the Auxito has a internal driver vs older technology of the Fahren's more bulky outer driver.

[@one.traveler]

How many lumens? Pls

[@SeidelRanch]

They are these: amzn.to/3UGSD2Z. It says 27000LM.

[@Homer19521]

How do you know they are higher wattage? Auxito doesn't say what the wattage is in the manual I have. Although much higher color temp., I am not sure they put out as much light as the 56w halogens I took out of my gmc.

[@SeidelRanch]

I don't think they are higher wattage than halogens you have, but I think the Amazon listing had the wattage on it. They were higher wattage than the Fahren ones I think.

[@cutesammie]

The beam on the right looks way brighter and better to me, sorry.

[@SeidelRanch]

No need to be sorry. I get what you are saying. In person the left seemed to be much brighter and whiter. The camera does adjustments with light that makes it not as noticeable.

[@tigerbalm666]

Auxitos are teh best. I tried Hikari and the fitment and beam paattern suc ass!

[@SeidelRanch]

Haha. They have worked well for me. Thanks.

[@tigerbalm666]

I has a pair of Hikari 9007 Eye of Megatron I can ship to you for cheap.

[@SeidelRanch]

@@tigerbalm666 Haha. I am good, but thanks.

[@jerryfujiwara6326]

Don't forget to have the head lights adjusted right. Tired of people that install them , looks like blinding high beams

[@SeidelRanch]

Yeah, that is why I test them on the garage door when I put them in.

[@rondhole]

The halogen is much brighter but yellow

[@SeidelRanch]

Neither one of them are halogen. They are both LED.

[@amandeepsingh-mj6vn]

I totally agree, I don’t like the color of new auxito & they are not as bright as old fahreen that is only 16000 lumen as compare to auxito 20000 lumen 😂

[@rondhole]

@@amandeepsingh-mj6vn I prefer brighter halogen but yellow than fainted white bluish garbage LED.

[@rondhole]

@@SeidelRanch exactly, the Halogen is brighter than both.

[@rondhole]

HIR2 HALOGEN is still brighter than any of the LED

[@SeidelRanch]

I will look into that, thanks.

[@FELIPE8226M]

No they arnt, the newest leds on the market blow halogens out the water. GTR Ultra 2,ddm tuning,hikari,auxbeam g7 ect ect

[@rondhole]

@@FELIPE8226M i agree with those but not the 99% of the rest in the market. They are mostly garbage. Not more than 10 are good.

[@littlej3777]

I don’t believe that

[@rondhole]

@littlej3777 some LED are much brighter than HIR2 bulb but not that many. Bevinsee v35 and v45, auxbeam GX, lasfit LS, GTR ultra 2, etc. are beighter than HIR2. But many are much dimmer. All good LED are usually $50 or more

[@littlej3777]

Actually I see that your light is not sitting at 3 to 9 o’clock am I correct or Not?

[@SeidelRanch]

The LEDs would be shining left and right (3 and 9) and the plastic base would be up and down (12 and 6) I believe. I think that is how I put them in.
