A better headlight bulb for 97 SX


Man ..not sure of the diff ,but i put a 100/55 w. xenon bulb in my sx and it lights up the trail!
 
I love my dual color 65/55 Xenon from Bluhm industries (I think that is the correct spelling) It works well and there is no dimming.
 
I took the cheap way out... Sylvania Silverstar bulb... and then added an LED tail light and eliminated any dimming when braking. Much brighter than the stocker was... and now I have a spare bulb to boot.
 
The PIAA bulbs have the power outage of a bigger bulb but still consume the same amount of power from your stator 55-80w which is the same as the stock bulb, So NO you won't burn out the stator.I ve had minr in for two seasons now without a problem.

I did this as well, and finally got to try it this weekend! The SilverStar didn't do much on low beams, but on High's I could really tell... The LED works great too!

I don't know what effect the 100/80W would have on the stator.
Your going to be pulling about 8.3 amps on high and 6.6 amps on low
vs 5.4 and 4.5 amps for the stock bulb.
The wire gauge looks to me to be about 14 awg which will safely handle about 15 amps so as far as wiring (at least at the bulb) it will handle the amps.
 
Waterfoul, Thrifty idea...do you have model numbers for that silverstar bulb, Ive got an LED taillight already.
94' V MAX 500

i want to run an led headlamp and tail/brake light. do I put the modulator inline before it splits between the headlight and tail section!? where can I get an H4 LED Headlight Bulb...
I am running an 1997 700 Vmax Sx
