Sylvania or Xenon?

What's with these Razo's?

Seems awful strange to me that their retail price is $80 and they are selling for $1 on ebay (+ shipping of course). ...? Doesn't anyone else question this? I'm under the impression that, for the most part, that you get what you pay for... how can these possibly be better than name brands?

I've tried many sets of bulbs: cheap Japanese ones that I can't read anything on the package, PIAA superwhites, IPF magic J's, and Sylvania Silverstars. (The Silverstars look exactly like the IPF's, I even had one of each in my jeep for a long time!... but are about 1/2 the price of the IPFs) The cheapo Japanese ones burned out in less than 1 month: a 55w one and an 80w one.

Correctly if I'm wrong, but I think most people just want...
brighter than stock
whiter than stock
relatively inexpensive
if a higher wattage - won't burn out stock wires
reliability (how long will they last)!!

Does anyone know if the Razo's will last? Have they been proven over time?

I too did buy 2 sets of the 9006 Silverstars off of EBay and am very happy with them, so far. I will have to look up the Razo's everyone is talking about. I am just affraid to do something to my lights themselves or to the wiring. So I am assuming that as long as they are 55watts each, I believe this is the wattage they use, then I should be ok?

Ok, in regards to the Razo bulbs, if the 606 are for the fog and low beam lights, what is the bulb type for the high beams? Do they not make them? I checked the listing on the website the seller gives and itjust states 9006 for fog and low beam and 9005 for the high beam but I don't see them. Am I missing something?

Has anyone here ever tried the Wagner's Brite lite bulbs?? I send them on a site (Brandsport.com) for about $9.50 each!

6000K >!>!>!>!?????

Only the real HID can reach "Kelvins"




all that ebay crap, well not crap, normally just lies,


its advertising!

and normally, when you look on ebay, the 110w bulbs mean 55w bulb a piece add another you get 110w or 27569527846985726349875629834765987680K bulbs

There was some talk awhile back about Philips vision+. Has anyone purchased these and how are they? Have they lasted more than one year?

Only the real HID can reach "Kelvins"

It is very possible for these bulbs to reach 6000K. This is the color temperature of the bulbs. Normally the Halogen automotive bulbs are rated at about 3-4000k but if you paint them with a blue coating, as with most of the so called "HID like" or "XENON," you can get a rating of 6000k. This is what gives you the bluish look. Sunlight on the other hand is rated at about 5500K (depending on weather, clouds, etc.). So as far as the kelvin rating goes if you have a 3000k light it is yellowish, 5000k is white, 6500k is bluish, 8000k purplish (approxmate ratings).

I on the other hand would like a bright white light, I don't want it to be blue (ricey as someone stated). Are these RAZO bulbs blue or white? Which ones are closer to white Sylvania Silverstars or these RAZO's?
