After their recent LED issues I'd wait a while for some feedback from people and see if those headlight bulbs are any good.

I saw the OLED thread on hidp but was bored reading it because of the randomness of posts and never saw that video.

Most of their threads get OT quickly, and frequently. They only seem to care about spam and whoring, those are the bigMounce said:

trying to read through some of their off topic threads like "what came in your mail today" and it gets off topic for a good 5 pages (50 posts) at a time. No way that would happen here, even the whores (myself included) would call people down for that.

AFAIK it has. I had driver issues with them, he sent me the new drivers and I haven't had any problems since...going on more than 6 months now.Midnyteryder196 said:

They just started selling them recently. Since there's a market demand for them, even though they aren't as good as HIDs, it's smart to sell them to make a profit. Same with the PnP HID stuff they sell.Capote said:

The LED headlight bulbs only come in 1 color. I believe they are around 5000K

I find this to be the case with many applications. Plenty of pics of how "cool" they look but no comparison shots vs stock.Capote said:
I have searched on Google and HIDP, but have not seen anything since the Morimoto LED headlighs are still new. Might eventually buy a pair to see if they are any better than what Kevin is selling.Playsinsnow said:
One pro I seen from the start is that they are 5000k versus Kevin's which seem to be 6500k if not higher. A con though, is that the Morimoto are 3000 lumens and Kevin claims that his are 3600 lumen.
Capote, if you are wanting blueish LED headlights then I would go with Kevin's LEDs. They are also $20 less than the Morimoto at $80.

4300K in color would be nice, but never seen a LED in that kelvin. Closest would be 5000k. Maybe it is an issue with the quality control of his overseas supplier. My Cree chips are at least 6500K. You can see the blue color on my white house in the pics I have in my profile. Other than not matching my 4500K hids, I do not have any complaints as they are definitely brighter than halogens and look better as well.Matt said:

My Cree leds in the lightbar are bluer than my 5000K HID lows. Really need to update the High beams at some point soon.

I read that the LED emitters are supposed to be close to their highest efficiency around that 5500-6000K range, that's why you see that blueish color to all the OEM LED headlights on the road, instead of a more 4300K color.
