headlight bulbs October 20, 2006, 10:40:35 AM I'm thinking about replacing my headlight bulbs but have seen some different wattage ones on ebay. What happens if I use high wattage bulbs than the normal 45/65 ones? I reallly would like to use the Silverstar Ultra'a but don't want to spend the $50 for the pair. According to the Osram Sylvania website, their bulbs are 4000K on the temp color scale. I have seen 6500K ones on ebay. What are your experiences and thoughts? Quote Selected
headlight bulbs Reply #1 – October 20, 2006, 03:06:20 PM More watts is more amps. The battery is staying at 12volts.If you don't want to burn up your switches then put in relays.Relays will also make them brighter, cause theres less voltage drop directly from the battery.I beleive the xxxK temperature indicates color not brightness.Remember white is the presence of all colors.Ever seen TV where they dress people in blue and use blue light?Then you can't see the blue stuff.
