I've been waiting for this review since I got my forscher and you didn't disappoint. The price/performance on the termitor is impressive. I mostly drive in the city now and I think these might be overkill in my reflectors haha. I'm still happy with my current Fahren lights.

I was really confused with regard to LED lighting until I started watching your reviews. I find them informative and useful. Based on your review of the Termitor, I decided to try them out on our '07 Mustang GT. I was not disappointed! They surpassed my expectations, and I wouldn't even have known about this brand if not for your video! Thank you so much!

The only problem I’m have is the Allen bolt it’s like came from factory with lock tied because I can’t lose those bolts to adjust the angle. Don’t now if was just mine but I’m claim Fahren and they respond very nice and send me a refound… this guys it’s real behind there products.

Watched all of your vids and still waiting for the zeus review. Hehe May i suggest you include in your video, photos of initial light output vs after 27mins so we can visualize how much dimmer led bulbs after the 27 minute average commute time. Just find the right exposure time (closest to what the human eye could see in real life). That would be awesome.

Thanks man your videos are helpful to many! I’ve been purchasing fahren led bulbs going on 4 years now and I’m very pleased that you’ve gained enough interest in the brand and have begun doing product testing. The forscher I’ve used on many cars but today I was debating between the kregies and termitor. I have the termitors installed on my big rig currently and I needed another pair of bulbs but wasn’t sure which of the two would be better between the kregies and termitor. Hoping you’ll cover that by the end of the video 😊

@@CarLightReviews I too drive a semi truck and I bought the fahren forscher years ago with good result. It was a 2020 international LT. It has one of the best if not the best reflector headlights of all time. I've never seen reflector headlights with as sharp of a cutoff and good beam pattern that could easily compete against high end projector headlights. Unfortunately the rear housing where the fan would be is completely exposed to the elements. The tires would kick up dirty water into the fan destroying it but the light still worked.

I have had that request a few times. The problem is, I am a one man show, and adding an additional high beam to the low beam doubles the effort and data. I had to make a choice of what I would test in and since H11 is among the most common on the road, I started with that. I am not saying I won't test in H4 in the future, but I don't have it in my plans at this time. I do appreciate the suggestion!

I'm concerned about how hard they are driving the LED in these units. Has anyone done any testing to see how long they last? And to make a fair and realistic test, they need to be installed in a reflector, or in a glass jar so the airflow from the fan doesn't reach the LED part. If they are alive after a week/168 hours, do another lux test.

Perpendicular to reflector ridges if reflector...which is usually 9 and 3 (left to right). Check the collar tabs of the LED and make sure it is in the same orientation of the halogen it is replacing. There may be cases where they are the same and the LED emitters still do not fire in the correct direction, which is then where an adjustable collar is needed.

Typically, all of the lights that I test are the same in terms of specifications except for the mounting collar (H11 vs H4, etc.).

Figured I'd post this here. Just bought these for my 2020 F-150 and for some reason it uses h11s and 9005s for high and low beams and for some reason the bulbs keep turning off. I'm assuming I need resistors. Just wanted to know if anyone else had this issue

I would use caution when using fanless LED headlights. Without that heat management, they will get very hoy, which can reduce light output and longevity. That's why I rarely test fanless units as they typically do not perform well.

My son bought these for me for Christmas, I have a 2006 Nissan Xterra it has a single reflector housing for both low beam and high beam, the Termitor I have has 2 LED's on each side, I am assuming one is low beam and the other is for the high beam, does it matter if the low beam LED is on the top or bottom with the LED's oriented at 3 and 9 o'clock?

How would you rate these drop in LED bulbs as opposed to full headlight assemblies like Morimoto, alpharex, anzo, etc. in an F150?
@CarLightReviews
@CarLightReviews 2 жыл бұрын
Hard to say as I haven't tested them. In theory, I think that the full headlight assemblies would typically do better, depending on the design and quality. I only say that because technically, you are using a light that the housing wasn't explicitly designed for. In a sense, hacking your headlights in a basic way. However, the full headlight assemblies can be assumed to be designed to be effective as-is...so again in theory, it would do better. However, it all depends. I had some inexpensive replacement headlights I bought and my initial testing showed they did not do very well at all compared to the factory housings. How more expensive ones do better, from what I understand, but at that point...you are spending hundreds of dollars vs around $100 for LED bulb replacements.

I think you are referring to distance, which depends largely on the headlight housing and how efficient it is, which is very hard for a guy like me (or anyone not in an SAE/DOT/ECE test lab) to test against. That's why I do baseline vs upgrade testing in my controlled environment...to at least give a reasonable idea of light output and pattern before you spend the money to find out that the marketing lied to you and they suck in every category, which means you wasted time and money. So far, according to the comments that my viewers provide, my testing helps quite a bit in that regard.
