Now you are getting more power to the bulb. Pay close attention to the housing - Reggie 2002-07-28 19:56:16 (291 views)

I will, I think it'll be ok, I don't think 100w would be though, - Nick Gustas 2002-07-28 20:05:12 (229 views)

Yep - I have heard of some 100 watt issues - but they were not putting out 100w - Reggie 2002-07-29 16:03:13 (264 views)

BTW Nick, if you have a set of stock wattage high bulbs, can you retest using those? - RKA 2002-07-28 19:56:08 (230 views)

I can do that tomorrow, I was only getting 12.88v at no load and 12.4 with one. so it'd be at least - Nick Gustas 2002-07-28 20:08:04 (211 views)

Good gawd. You are gonna burn out someone's eyes. :P We need a write up. :) - System_S4000 Le DOH! 2002-07-28 19:06:12 (246 views)

If I need to use them in anger I want all the power I can get :) - Nick Gustas 2002-07-28 19:24:41 (243 views)

Don't feel bad, you should see how I have my Euros ghetto rigged..... - System_S4000 Le DOH! 2002-07-28 19:41:36 (262 views)

My guess is that this effect would be more dramatic in the A4's (halogens)? - RKA 2002-07-28 18:25:09 (246 views)

Probably, especially if the car has aged or the bulbs aren't stock. I'll throw a link over there - Nick Gustas 2002-07-28 18:43:28 (255 views)

Lumen calculations with sound guesstimates :) - Nick Gustas 2002-07-28 18:09:52 (500 views)
