Osram is the leading manufacturer of automotive lighting products, and their products are used as standard equipment by many of the major leading car manufacturers. However alongside their standard range of 12 volt headlight bulbs, Osram has also produced an upgrade range of headlight bulbs for drivers looking for improved lighting and styling performance from their headlight bulbs.
There are three improved styles for the headlight bulbs. These are Osram Silver Star, Osram Cool Blue, and Osram Night Breaker. Each of these bulbs has been determined as legal for the road and has the European testing standards E1 branding. These lights are designed to replace the standard equipment, thus they fit directly into the connectors and holders without need for a tool or modification.
To determine which of the new Osram headlight bulbs you want it is best to find out what light bulbs your vehicle already has. This information can be found in two different places. Your car’s owner manual should list the style and rating of your headlight bulbs. Your other option is to use the words “Car Bulbs Finders” in the Google search engine. It will then list online auto bulb dealers, which have car guides online for you to use.
Osram Cool Blue has been designed for a driver who wants a different look for their car. The Cool Blue design has blue tinted glass that provides a blue light a lot like the xenon bulbs.
There are ECE rules which limit the degree of blue light your headlights are allowed to have. Osram Cool Blue bulbs are dark and street legal, and one of the only ones you can find.
The Osram Silverstar bulbs are tailored to improve a drivers night time visibility, and is a considerable improvement over the standard halogen headlight bulbs. Crucially the Osram Silverstar is designed to produced 50% more light onto the road, especially in the 50 to 75 meter range therefore enabling a driver to react earlier to hazards, road signs and potential obstacles.
The Osram Night Breaker is considered the flagship of bulbs due to the pressurised xenon gas construction. There is also a different filament construction to the bulb helping to emit more light. In fact the Night Breaker has 90 percent more light and 35 metres more distance than halogen for night driving. The light emitted is 10 percent clearer.
Keen motorists who want the best sight and performance from their headlights should make the choice of the Osram Night Breaker.
By choosing the upgraded lights like Osram Cool Blue, Silver Star, or Night Breaker you will have better night driving safety and lights that fit your needs.
If you want better vision for driving at night you should fit new Headlight Bulbs so you can see and been seen more clearly. The latest range of aftermarket, retro fit Xenon Bulbs are designed for professional drivers who travel long distances, often in poor light or night time conditions when good forward vision is crucial.
