On top of our everyday low price, this INSTANT REBATE would make this deal even more special.

Visit us at hidconcept.com

FYI, see below comparison photos to see how it looks different from the stock 4300K (from our previous test)
(First comparison photos were taken from our facility. The other two actual road comparison photos were taken by AUDIZINE members. Many thanks to kappax12 and studioRS!)
There were rumors that X-tremeVision bulb gets whiter and brighter after 200 hrs of use.
To find out if it's a rumor or truth, we ran a test by having a X-tremeVision bulb stay lit for 9 days (9 days x 24 hrs = 216 hrs).

Conclusion: It's not a rumor anymore. It has been confirmed. X-tremeVision bulb gives whiter and brighter light compared to the stock 4300K bulb from the beginning and it gets even better as it goes through break-in process.
We're very satisfied with the result after 216 hrs of use.

We took a few comparison photos showing stock Philips 4300K D2S(lower), new Philips X-tremeVision D2S (middle), and color-shifted Philips X-tremeVision D2S w/220 hrs use (upper) to show you the difference in lighting output and color.
The photos have not been photoshopped and untouched except for our log being added.

Although we tried to take good photos, it is not easy to take photo of lighting.
The result is that stock 4300K is noticeably yellower and dimmer than X-tremeVision bulb and the color-shifted X-tremeVision bulb is much whiter with crisp white.

If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at [email protected] or 1-888-579-5917.

Thank You,

Also HIDConcept prices can't be beat and it's an authentic bulb, no risk of knockoffs on ebay.

Bump for Saturday.
Spring weather here in Chicago has been awfully weird today.
It's been raining, snowing with strong wind and then sun-shining... It's been repeating for past 4-5 hours.
Hopefully, it's better where you all live at.

Happy Monday!
Just wanted to share the most frequently asked question.

How do X-treme vision compare to Osram CBI?
Osram CBI gives 5000K color for D3S/D4S and 5500K for D2S/D1S with up to 20% more brightness.
Philips XV gives 5000K color (initial start at 4800K) for all HID bulbs with up to 50% more brightness.

Overall, I would say go with X-tremeVision series if you want even more brightness.
For those who need D1S/D2S, if color is more important for you, definitely go with Osram CBI.
No worries. We have both Osram CBI and XV.
