I have the 9007 series lights and would like to hear if anyone has found 80/100 watt bulbs that DO NOT have some stupid blue film on the bulb.
Anything other than clear glass is going to limit the lumen's produced by the filament.
I'm looking for a 100watt high beam, low beam of at least 65watts.


Reason - I live out where the deer like to roam and I don't much fancy body work if you catch my draft. I'm working on getting another 100 watt KC running light but for a long term solution I'd like brighter bulbs, yes I've aimed my Sylvania silver star rip off lights and I still want something brighter.

Mods please move as you see fit, I didn't see a general "lighting" forum.

 

Hella 9007 Bulbs and HB5 Bulbs

 

60H/55L

Less than my Silverstar bulbs . They're rated at 1300 lumen output. Though I HAVE seen hella bulbs for the 9007 style that are 80/100 watts I haven't had any luck in finding them again to order .

 

Loud mufflers and excessive speed has always helped me avoid deer. They run long before Modzilla arrives.

 

^ I'm saving up for a 2.5 turbo swap (3,xxx$ only 1200 more to go!) then I'll be modzilla, but until then I need to work on evasion and detection.

:bowsinrecognitiontosearchskills:

Thank you, I've been googling off and on for almost 2hrs going through THREADS of information but most of the links didn't work.
The few I found for products were of the blue glass type. Thank you!

Edit*
Read some reviews, turns out hella doesn't make THOSE bulbs but someone supplied a link to GE nighthawk bulbs. hmm choices choices!

 

Deer horn?

 

the nighthawks are still 55/60, they just use slick terms to make you think you get more light.

there is no replacement for wattage.

I personally use 55/100s in my wagon. I have light when I need it with my high beams.
