We Do Lighting Better Because We Test! - Авто та транспорт
Im not even three minutes in, and I'm already keeling over laughing.... "This first piece of shyte we got from..." 🤣🤣🤣🤣
yeah😂
CHYNA
By far my favorite video so far. Well done the commentary was perfect
Thanks for the feed back
Chris, I appreciate you still holding it down for the old car crowd.
Eventually, I'll get around to getting those little logo projector puddle lamps y'all made stabbed into my Fiero. Some day soon. Maybe.
Thanks for the feedback!!!
The Phillips looks the best if you want a updated stock look without all the wierd looking projectors inside.
No hi & low bulb though! Bad for us car drivers 😭
Glad all the work you guys do to put the information out there for the few people that actually care.
Love your Perspective comments. Cheers for the video. From Australia. Cheers.
Thanks for watching!
THANK GOD I CAME ACROSS THIS VIDEO! I just bought my first plow truck and it has crappy 4x6 halogen lights that are so bad, I can't drive in the dark. I was just about to pull the trigger on 2 different crappy ones that you reviewed. I think I'll just get the 4x6 housing and put my extra set of HID in them. THAAAANK YOU!!!
I love that you put this video out. I wish it was out when I needed to buy new headlights for my plow. I went through 3 sets before I got the z offroad ones, and I know they are cheap Chinese ones, but out in the real world I've had good luck with them on my plow out in the snow and everything. It has been a huge upgrade compared to the stock ones and even the stock halogens on my dodge ram. I prefer driving with them over my stocks by far!
Thank you for the comment and the view.
They are I think the best performance for the buck.
I love Morimoto but a lot o me their beam patterns usually shallow. Their patterns are usually unique, which I do like. You definitely a great pair of fog/focus light down there.
love the way you guys demolish these things 🤣👏🏻👌🏻
If you do a 5x7, please include a e-code headlight with a good h4 bulb in it.
I love your guys reviews. I bought my wife headlights for her Ram from your video also mine for my Jeep.
Glad you like them!
Awesome comparison! You saved me from buying the JW knockoff, which wasn't that bad, but I want the best. How come the Philips didn't make the cut? It looks like a great option, especially for those that want a normal-looking headlight.
Awesome comparisons! Love the look of those new Morimoto Sealed4's!
Glad you like them!
Great video! I was looking for a replacement for my drz400 headlight and you made it really easy. Thanks!
Glad it helped!
Thank you so much for this. This made my week
You are so welcome!
Awesome job lads! Can’t wait to see the 5x7 comparison!
Probably same if not worst... 😠
Thanks for the comment.
I'm sorry Chris, but you had me sold on J.W. Speaker headlights years ago... I got a set for my 2000 XJ and love them 4 years later. My plan is to sell them this spring and get the newer heated version. J.W. Speaker is the only headlight I'll put on my Jeep.
Thanks for another great review!,
K-9 XJ in Portland, Oregon
Thank you for your feedback, its much appreciated.
this video is awesome! thanks for posting. you got my business!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for the review :)
Please make test all headlights for Peterbilt 379 tell about trux lights they have heater for winter time and also have retro style headlights, but I can’t find Beam pattern and brightness test, I am pretty sure a lot of truckers want to know which lights they can buy, All lights which you talking about usually not selling in the truck stops, and you don’t have any of the lights which usually saling in chrome shops...
A hero of the people. Thanks a ton
🤘🤘🤘🤘
Great video. Lots of info. Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you!!! You saved my money!
You're welcome!!
Thank you for the info!!
You are most welcome!
You just saved me some dough. Thanks 😊.
Any time!
Yes I need some for my peterbilt. I'm still using the traditional headlight, but I need some with heating elements for winter. 👍👍👍👍👍
Speakers are the stuff, Man.
JW Speaker for sure for heated lights!
Have you guys seen or reviewed the older Genssi sealed beams? There is a model that I've seen a few images of with what look like nice cutoffs and good hotspots even. Feel like it's a good middle ground, they're around $89 to $100 each.
Hey good thing I found this vid, was about to buy some
Sweet!
13:51 You working for Morimoto and it shows...what the hell is that shadow in the middle and then some brighter light in the foreground, plus lots of shadows everywhere. This is very bad beam pattern and it should be barely pass. But considering the price, you are better off with stock and save for the JW/ Philips ones
We DO NOT work for Morimoto. But thanks for the comment.
Thanks for the video. My Kenworth came with the 3rd POS you reviewed. They SUCK.. all those diodes and on dim only the top row (of 3) light up and the center horizontal row. Makes a huge T Junk.. I see em everywhere too, no clue why. I didn’t buy em. Thank you sir
Good review
Glad you enjoyed it
I'm curious as to why you didn't test really high quality lights like Truk-Lite?
Been using the 15 LED Cree lights for 3 years now in my 95 Chevy S10, I absolutely love them and they light down the road and both sides so we can see the deer. I would have thought your test on these would have been better.
Right on!
Where can I find those ! The brand you have . WhAts the name? I have a 95 I just did leds on not sure if I like them .
Thanks brother
Of course!
Followed here from another vid using Dapper LED lights. Was hoping they would be in the review. Great video though.
Thanks for the reply.
Fun fact: Founded in 1896, Tungsram is a subsidiary of GE who makes (rebadged) halogen and led sealed beams.
So the tungsram featured in the video isn't a blatant ripoff, it's a blatant rebadge.
Good to know!
The problem with the Philips is that it "doesn't work on older cars" per philips. They said anything older than like 2012 or so, they said. Worked on my turbo buick regal for a month or so and stopped working. They can't figure out why they won't work. But don't buy it for older vehicles.
Good to know!
This video needs posted in every F, G, and A body Facebook group
Wanna help us out with that? 👀
Dont know if anyone cares but the feathered pattern in the beam is caused during the lens casting. Most lenses are injection molded and popped out on a conveyor where they get dropped into a bin and assembled with the rest of the light elsewhere. During the time they are on the conveyor, the light cools and can have warping from static electricity or pick up contiminants from the air, which causes the feathering. The correct process is to blow ionized air over the lens to neutralize the charged lens surface.
Interesting
Pls can u guys review the benivee v35 led bulbs pls
Can you do one with built-in turning signals
I’ve seen that multi-LED POS on a ton of vehicles as well. Amazon put them on all of their box vans. I see them on a bunch of death trap Jeep Cherokees as well (usually equipped with Amazon’s cheapest lift kit as well). They blind you when oncoming, but when you’re behind them, you can tell that they don’t light up the road at all. I really don’t understand why people put these on their car and leave them because they’re obviously worse than the original headlight.
Nice video.
Thanks for the visit!
I instinctively chose the one in the middle out of looks alone. Boy, did I get lucky! Is there a video on installing and what the plug with the three wires attaches to? Lights were easy and straight forward but instructions are confusing to a novice with no experience.
Glad you were able to get these installed easily!
Can y’all do a test on the Trux accessories headlights on the channel?
How do I send sujestions for yall to do next that involve the 4x6 lights
Very good vid. Maybe an updated 5x7 comparo?
Stay tuned.
I saw the new 5x7 vid. Company got me some trucklites. As you stated, somewhat brighter, but beam pattern is nuts comparably to the old schoolers
Good job keep up the great work I’m looking for some LED lights for my El Camino 1983 so I just wanted to talk to you or should I say listen to you talk to me about which ones are the best ones because I like to do a lot of traveling and I definitely needed your input thanks big guy.🎯👍🏻
Which ones did you get? I need some for my 81 el camino
Check out the Holley Retrobright headlights!

World class
Thanks for the feed back.
GREAT TEST!!
Thank you! Cheers!
What about a 4x6 housing with HR H-4
I just bought an Octane lighting 4x6 set for my 1987 Monte Carlo SS that are Modified sealed housings to take an H4 bulb. I like the 55w/60w bulbs they came with fine but, I can also just buy H4 LED's or HID's if i want to. And ill never have to take the housings out again if i dont want to i can just change the Bulb.
That's a neat upgrade!
H4666 were used on the truck in "Maximum Overdrive." 😉
LOL!!! Classic movie.
Happy Toyz
Interesting. It looks like the Vision X brand might have ripped off FireTech. I would have loved to see a comparison between Vision X and FireTech. Great video!
Great point! Thanks for the comment.
I'm pretty sure Vision X makes the headlights for FireTech.
Do you have the comparison of the JW Speaker Model 8820 and the Vision X LED ? did not see the specs?
some of the headlights with round beam pattern would be pretty good for motorcycles
Its still best to have the light beam spread out how it supposed to be. for safety.
Have you ever compared these to a European Hella 4x6 headlight housing with a halogen H4 bulb in them? Just curious on how the European beam pattern is compared to the US one, since we have quite specific rules on how the light needs to hit the road.
We have not tested against European headlights unfortunately.
Thsnks great stuff and well made. I went through a few of these that I had to return and ended up with BraveWAY Dot Approved...
$109.95 Sold By: LUMIWAY. For my old Winnebago. I would not recommend them the low pattern is so tall there is no way to properly adjust them but the high beams are too bright. The halo's are cool. I don't drive it much in the dark. Also the DOT/SAE ID markings are printed right near the corner so they are hidden under the bracket. I really do not believe there is any real third party certification or manufactures actually test to any specification.
Maybe DOT means something else in china
I see that the SEALED4: MORIMOTO BI-LED (4X6) is the brightest and the best BUT…..how do they hold up in adverse weather conditions? The biggest downside of LED lighting is that they allow ice and snow to build up and cover the lenses making them useless. Do the Morimotos produce enough heat to avoid that? My Kenworth and I travel the PNW and the Midwest so this is sorta important. Thanks for your time.
Have you tested th HWSTAR headligts?
I live in europe and see in many podlamps in this test the letter E inside a circle. I was near to buy some of your products like a fog lights and some 7" speaker headlights but I dont know if they are marked E for legal drive in europe. (Like DOT SAE in USA) Thanks for your answer... 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😷💪🏻

Hi excellent video glad i found it. i have a chevy g20 with the 4 headlights 4x6. I live in the UK so they have to be suitable for right hand drive what ones could you recommend as my current loghts are aweful i cant use my van at night as even with main beam on I cant see the road thanks would really be grateful if you could respond thanks
Look into the Holley Headlights!
How about jtx and ultraflex 4x6?
Now I want some Morimoto Sealed4's and I have nothing to put them in, haha. You guys are the best!
You're the best!
Review KTM motorcycle headlights too. They're creating a lot of hype in the market.
Thanks for the feed back.
What about trux 4x6 test and the trux head light assembly that replaces the side by side 4x6 that kenworth and peterbilt have
We could maybe test those another time!
Chris, as regards swapping out H4 and H1 bulbs in Bosch or Hella or Cibie 4X6's for replacement LEDs instead of using JW, etc do you have a video or, what are your thoughts there? I currently run JW Speaker heated on my KW up on the Alaska highway and am moderately satisfied, although not impressed.
Shoot us an email at Sales@headlightrevolution.com
Great video, so many led 4*6 and no any actual reviews for so many years. Im living in Ukraine, and problem simply to find any good 4*6, specially LED only total sh*t. Few years ago i bought trux t-led h's, they looks like stock but it was like lottery i didnt found any actual info how they are performing...
Thank you, Alex!
I've been eyeing off Holley Retrobright lights but found out they don't ship to Australia, they looked very descent.
We most definitely ship to Australia!
@@HeadlightRevolution Got my order in.
What about the jw and Phillips high beams? Can you put the lux numbers for these? Thanks.
We only focused on the low for this test.
@@HeadlightRevolution what do you mean you had numbers for the high beam portion of all of the high and low performing headlights
Is there anywhere that you test both of the Philips h4656 and the h4651 together? Im looking for lights for my 85 Chevy truck with separate high and low beams.
We have not tested these, unfortunately.
How do the Holley Retrobrights compare?
The Holley lights have blown almost everything we've tested away!
Question: Since a lot of these lights are dual use (high and low beam), could for connect both modes together and have four low beams and four high beams on a big rig (two on each side)? That might actually give you a better pattern and more lux.
Yep! We make low/high beam splitters just for this!
@@HeadlightRevolution i found it on your website do i buy the H1F or H4F for the morimoto light? Also would you rate the philips just as good as the jw speaker? The philips for my car is like 200 less PER headlight than the JW
Can yall test some 5x7 please?
Stay posted!
I’m looking for a 4x6 led light that has a changeable bulb and led halo lights(preferably changeable colours). I’ve seen many but there are no reviews on them. Any recommendations?
Shoot us an email at Sales@headlightrevolution.com and we can help you.
Is any of these E-code compliant?
You guys should’ve gotten more views for this video.
Thank you 💞
Is there another video or plans for a video for the H6024 7" Round LED headlights?
Check there channel. I believe they did that test about a year ago.
Thank you for the assistance.
How do you think the Auxbeam 4x6 would compare? Wonder why you didn't test that one?
We can tell you now that the Auxbeam lights are no better than the other "junk" units we tested. Unfortunately.
Like to have some retro brites but I refuse to give 8 times what they are worth.
Sir, can you comment on the motorcycle spotlights?
Will bring it up with the team. Thanks for the feed back.
@@HeadlightRevolution thank you very muck.
i have a 2006 colbot ss that takes 9007 leds in it and i need to know how to adjusted them the right way the low beam is just about point at the ground i have tried i know 20 times to get them right and the high beams is stell off i need help fixing them the right way

I’ve had good luck with my Z-off-road headlights
I see ypu now have Oracle Halo Headlights. What is your opinion those?
Not a bad option, but we prefer the Holley, Morimoto, or JW Speaker!
I have 7 X 6 in my 79 Ford F-100, I must have double trouble...
We have something for that as well!

I just looked at pricing for these top 3 finishers and they’re pretty pricy at $200-$350 a piece. I know it’s a you get what you paid kinda thing for with the quality, but are there any cheaper 4x6” led options? My ‘85 Mustang needs four 😬
They are going to be fairly pricey for a good quality sealed beam housing... the cheaper models out there are cheap for a good reason, keep this in mind! If it were my mustang, I would go with no other option but the Holley Performance RetroBright LED headlights. These are sold in PAIRS so you'll get x2 housings for the price, not just ONE! Hopefully this helps, these are my favorite sealed beam housings out there currently! Really fits the OEM+ look you want on a classic and the performance is MOUNTAINS better than factory.

I feel your pain my c1500 needs four lol
I'm looking for a Amber 4x6 for fog lights. Any suggestions
Not sure about 4x6 fog lights, most sealed beam headlights will only support low/high beam.
Wish they would have tested the truck lite brand.
I second this. It's my understanding that Truck Lite is made by Rigid.
Maybe next time!
Was a 4wd truck not available? Lol. Had a hard ass time getting up onto that little housing.
They did not put the truck into 4x4..
LOL, the floor started moving.
I'm looking for a good 4x6 led headlight unit for my Suzuki DRZ400SM motorcycle, would you by chance have any recommendations for me? Do you know if JNS headlights are any good, or are they too just rebranded Chinese garbage?
We have never tested those lights, for some good recommendations on your motorcycle please reach out to our CS team so we can get more info on your build!

I just went to your website, and there isn't anything for Kenworth W900 at all. It seems to be for 4 wheelers and bikes only 😢
That Kenworth has the sealed beam units, right? We definitely have a ton of options for sealed beam headlights!
www.headlightrevolution.com/complete_housings/universal_sealed_beam
Knowledge is power. Thanks again
You bet!
I love the look of the Phillips. I wish they came in Low and High configuration
How convenient that all the ones that "pass" they have in stock at $200+! 😂
We put all the 4X6's through the same controlled teat as you saw in the video. You get what you pay for if you like the cheaper lights then by all means you can choose them.
How is the morimoto affordable? $230 per headlight?
Much more so than some others!
JW speaker heated headlights are complete trash.. we have them on every rig we own (only 4) and have constantly had them overheat or run the heated lense even in the summer which burns them out and they quit working... We've had atleast one light quit every 2-4months for the past 2 years. No warranty!!
What are the best the money currently?
Holley Retrobrights are our favorite!
Wow must be annoying buying a bad set of headlights you thought were good but are awful thanks for the test
No problem 👍
Thumbs up!
Thank you! Cheers!
