Yeah. What is the side by side comparison? I know I just purchased my v4, but if there is a significant difference I might just have to buy the v5.

We do not yet have a side by side comparison of the lights but we are working on that. The LUX H8 V4 lights were rated at a 80 W halogen equivalent producing 850 lumen per side. the LUX H8 V5 lights are rated at a 120W equivalent producing 1200 lumen per side.

So forgive me if I sound skeptical, but I do wonder though how come as a manufacturer, the first thing you didn't do was put the V4's in a car side by side with the V5's and take pics... When you obviously have them both in stock. Basic part of the R&D you would have done I'm sure before deciding to sell them - ensuring that they vastly outperform - to the human eye - the V4's. So why not share that info? Hmmm... PS I'm a V4 owner, so I'm not here just to bash... . Last edited by Lotus99; 11-28-2014 at 04:40 PM.. Reason: Grammar |

As for pictures, I personally don't have a coupe so its a bit difficult to line up a car that's local to get good pictures. We are working on getting something scheduled however with someone to get these Photo's. The LUX H8 V4's are no longer for sale and they have been replaced by the V5's as well. These lights are not competing against each other but rather the V5 is a successor to the V4's. We have started to use the latest and greatest Cree LED's to make the V5's brighter. As i mentioned above the output of these lights increased 350 lumen per side to a total of 1200 lm, which is a large enough increase that this can be seen with the human eye. I hope that helps answer your question |

I just don't see how you couldn't find a single person with one of the 11 BMW models and years it fits during your R&D period to test them out in their car at your shop. But more importantly, wouldn't you want to know how it looks installed in a car and that it doesn't melt stuff, etc. before selling them??? |

I'm curious as well, though as most vendors have said over the years (and if you take a look yourself), the main issue is the design of the rings, where the source light is placed on the inside ring, and therefore, by the time it travels to the outside ring, it dims quite a bit. That can't be solved by just throwing more light at it.

We do ahve a 60 day return policy as stated on our site, so if you would like these can be returned and traded in for the V5's. Please send me an e-mail directly to Sales@LuxAngelEyes.com Quote:
One major thing to keep in mind is that you cant overcome the design of the rings. The outer ring has small grooves behind the ring and these grooves reflect the light outwards. At certain angles the grooves are not visible as you can see in the 1st picture of this stock headlight below. From an angle the grooves are not visible so you will not see any light. What i always recommend to people is to step back from the car 30 feet and look at the lights straight on and around eye level with the headlights. From there you will be able to see the rings fully. The 2nd picture here is taken from 30-40 feet back and is a comparison of the stock bulbs vs LUX H8 V5 around 6900K. The picture has not been Photoshopped to change the rings at all and is exactly the way the looked in person as well. Last edited by LuxAngelEyes; 11-30-2014 at 07:56 PM.. |
