[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1365602, member: 19880"] I think that offering is for ONE bulb at $75 - not cheap. Whether the lumen claim is for one bulb or two, there is no guarantee that it was measured using any acceptable method. I still don't get where 30,000 hours of operating time is not in excess of the bike's life. I have seen eBay offerings with well over 7000 lumens claimed and I'm pretty sure that it must be for two bulbs or something made up from an opium dream. Edit: Some eBay H4 offerings say over 25,000 LM. Many say 16,000 or higher. Even if both high and low beam on both bulbs, the claim is somewhat unbelievable! Example: [URL="https://www.ebay.com/itm/H4-252W-25200LM-PHILIPS-LED-Headlight-Kit-Hi-Low-Beam-Bulb-White-6000K-Power-/131960912226?hash=item1eb97bb962:g:SUIAAOSwTuJYuNz~&vxp=mtr"]https://www.ebay.com/itm/H4-252W-25200LM-PHILIPS-LED-Headlight-Kit-Hi-Low-Beam-Bulb-White-6000K-Power-/131960912226?hash=item1eb97bb962:g:SUIAAOSwTuJYuNz~&vxp=mtr[/URL] Says Philips (they aren't) Says 25,200 LM (they aren't) Says 252 watts (I hope not) Buyer beware!!
