As you go past approx. 6K, lumen output decreases. Also, our eyes are physically less sensitive to the color blue. Although, our eyes are more pleased by the color.

Re: First time.. im a nooob! (headlights)

14k HID brings teh fail.


Anything over 6k is a waste

indeed...once you use 4100-4300k (oem) you will never buy another color. my lame *** halogens are brighter than any 8k+ hids :coffee:

we cant tell how good the retro is until we see some night shots...very curious about the alignment if it only took 2 hours...

ps: holy big sigs all over this thread batman!

The thing is though that when i bought these lights, i wasnt going for brightness, i purposly wanted the 14K because i like the really blue color they put out, as far as driving at night though the 14K are alot better than the silverstars i was using before, as far as being able to see more at night
