    hi,

    is there a difference in the amount of light that each of these emit given the same wattage? let's say, which would offer better visibility? a 100w h1 or the high 100w of h4? kung baga, do the bulb sizes matter?

    another scenario, which would give a better view among the following. take note walang fog lamps, its only headlights

    for low (80w), which is better h7 or h4?
    - h7 low against h4 low

    for high (100w), which is better h7 + h1 or h4 only?
    - h7 high + h1 high against h4 high

    pasensya na kung nakakalito ang tanong

    nakakalito nga bro.
    but basically, its not on the wattage itself.
    for example: an 80w osram NB emits more light than an 80w osram all weather.

    on the H7 and H4, i think H7 has more filaments, therefore it emits more light.

    not sure ha?

    as for the osram line, ano ang pinakamaliwanag?

    The H1, H7, H4, etc. are bulb types. Each type have different wattages. e.g. an ordinary H4 bulb is 55W/60W, but you can buy 70W/80W, 100W/120W H4s.

    me kinalaman ba yung bulb size sa buga ng ilaw?

bulb sizes (h1, h7, h4, etc) vs. amount of light
