confused shoes - ang fog breaker ba sir ay all weather or ito talaga yung pure yellow na for foglamps only and hindi pwede sa headlights?

*blue_centrix, re: FOG BREAKER

It's a 55w 2800K-2900K(within this range). Some say it is golden yellow.

According to OSRAM it is 60% more light. It looks like better than all weather. For the all weather to have the same amount of light, it will be a 75w.

and my unsolicited advice to those who find their lights too weak...
have your eyes checked;
see if you have forgotten that you had your windshield tinted...; and
check your headlight lenses.. they may already be darkened with age.

dr. d - i'm okay with my stock bulbs except when it's raining at night.

On the premature busted bulb, di you clean the bulb before you installed it? A probable cause was that someone may have touched the bulb glass portion. The oils from our fingers/skin can "bake" on the bulb glass when it heats up and cause it to go bust right away.

sir john5 - how long did your narva last? planning to upgrade first my HL and fogs to narva while saving for the retrofit budget.

can you rank kung ano ang mas ma dilaw sa tatlo?

1. osram
2. bosch
3. narva

In terms of yellow-ness, I'd rank it as Bosch - Osram - Narva; but the differences are not too far off.

any feedback on bosch all weather plus 60/55w?
the bosch all weather is 100/90w, which of the two is brighter?

Had a not so good experience with Bosch All Weather + 60/55W.
Bought 1 pair during a business trip in Korea and when I came back and installed, I found the right HL with blurry cutoff.
Root cause is the bulb is not straight with respect to the base causing out of focus light reflection. But the light is really yellow compared to the flosser semi-gold that it replaced which are already 10 years old but still working although it's already dim.
