Top 20 H7 Bulbs

Already based on the name of this halogen lamp, the color of its radiation becomes clear. The golden-yellow beams of the dipped beam of car headlights perfectly diffuse the darkness, regardless of weather conditions. Fog on the street, rain or snow - the driver always has the most comfortable view of the road and the right side of the road.

The MTF Aurum halogen lamp shines with a standard H7 brightness of 1500 lm. Owners would certainly like to have a more powerful light source, but this can jeopardize traffic safety. Yes, and the available power, judging by the results of independent tests, is quite enough for normal operating conditions - you just need to remember to adjust the headlights after changing the source. As we did not look for, we did not manage to find any negative assessment in the reviews of the owners. MTF Aurum H7 halogen lamps fully meet expectations and their cost.

Despite the price difference, these halogen lamps work just as well as well-known brands. The luminous flux, as well as the color temperature (3200 K), correspond to the generally accepted standard. This makes NARVA H7 a good and inexpensive alternative to factory-installed factory-installed lights that have served their time.

In independent tests, a dipped beam lamp from this company was found to fail synchronously. That is, if one burns out, the next one will expire. This indicates a stable quality of products, which in many respects corresponds to more expensive analogues. The only thing that users do not like is the short life of the halogen lamp.Judging by the reviews, NARVA with frequent use, on average, can last from 6 to 18 months.

Safety, regardless of the time of day, depends on how much the driver sees. In fog, the accident rate is higher than in clear weather; at night it is higher than during the day. Lamps like the Philips H7 Vision Plus can slightly improve the situation and provide a large area of ​​​​illumination and brightness.

According to the manufacturer, this model provides 60% higher brightness. Of course, there was some cunning here too - after all, no one canceled marketing, but ignoring the fact that this model really illuminates the road and other objects a little better is an indisputable fact.

Any person would like his purchase to serve faithfully for as long as possible. Automobile lamps are no exception. Of course, the price of one such thing is unlikely to seem very high, but the regular replacement of a low-quality light bulb can result in a round sum. In addition, many modern cars have too complex a design, which makes the banal replacement of lighting a real epic, because sometimes you need to dismantle almost the floor of the car!

Fortunately, there are lamps such as the Osram H7 Original, which have a very long declared service life. Unlike competitors that claim a maximum lifespan of around 400 hours, this model will last 550 hours! Of these, the guaranteed period is at least 330 hours.

This car low beam headlight lamp features an improved filament design and the composition of the gas in the lamp. This allows it to emit light in the temperature range of 3700 K with greater performance. According to its characteristics, it is closer to daytime white, which provides a much more efficient view of the road in the dark.

Having passed the necessary tests, General Electric Megalight Ultra received a certificate of conformity and can be safely used on general roads, including EU countries. In the reviews, users who installed Megalight Ultra halogen lamps in the headlights of their cars positively note their reliability. The operation of this lighting equipment in conditions of constant vibrations and shock loads (bad roads) does not at all reduce the "life" of the lamps. Along with quality, the cost of these products looks no less attractive, which compares favorably with more expensive competitors.

The high intensity of PIAA Celest White halogen lamps with H7 base was one of the reasons that allowed us to lead this category in our review. According to the manufacturer's statements, these automotive lights generate radiation that is 155% of its rated output in intensity. The method by which this was achieved is kept secret, but independent tests carried out speak for themselves - Celest White really shines brighter.

By installing these lamps in the low beam headlights, the owner will get a better view of the road, not only at night (including at dusk). The warm glow temperature (3200 K) is pleasing to the eye and perfectly "pierces" the space in rain and fog, providing optimal visibility in all weather conditions. Judging by the reviews of owners who use PIAA Celest White H7 in their cars, the lamps are distinguished by their quality and reliability. They show excellent resistance to vibrations and have a long service life, keeping their performance unchanged for almost the entire period of operation.

In last place is a Philips lamp. This model is a solid mid-ranger. She has an average price - not cheap, but not expensive either; parameters of power and color temperature approximately similar to those of competitors.

But in terms of brightness, Racing Vision managed to stand out quite strongly, because these lamps provide a 150% brighter light beam.

And again, the products of the German company Osram are head and shoulders ahead of their rivals in the struggle for durability. Of course, the race for enhanced brightness slightly reduced the resource, but the 300 hours of guaranteed service life are impressive.

In addition, we, of course, would not include this model in the rating without it having a brightness increased by 130%. This is confirmed by car owners. Some even claim that the light cone has lengthened by 40 meters!

When passing independent tests, halogen lamps recorded a luminous flux of 1580 lm with a color temperature of 3350 K. For car low beam headlights, these are pretty good indicators, allowing us to speak of the Fukurou F1 H7 as the best lamps among the presented models of various brands.

In the reviews of the owners, the durability of this product is also positively assessed. So, in comparison with car lamps "A" class, Fukurou F1 resource is 208 hours longer, and this is already a serious competitive advantage. In the reviews of the owners, there are absolutely no complaints about either the performance or the build quality of this brand's products. The only drawback can be considered a ban on the use of these products when driving a car on EU general roads, but they are great for domestic use.

The PIAA H7 Hyper Arros 5000K is an excellent choice for replacing halogen bulbs in low beam headlights of various car brands. These Japanese lighting devices are popular in the domestic market, having earned the trust of the consumer with impeccable workmanship and excellent performance. They generate cold white light with a temperature of 5000 K, which has an increased, in comparison with the accepted standard, brightness of the glow.

In addition, the quartz bulb at the base is equipped with a protective metal retainer ring, which reduces the effect of vibration and shock on the service life. Judging by the reviews, PIAA H7 Hyper Arros 5000K demonstrates high reliability and stability of radiation parameters, providing flawless road illumination for quite a long time. The owners rightly consider these lamps to be among the best on the market, but their purchase requires a reliable and trusted supplier - there are many fakes on the market.

This lamp is a great example of... a bad way to get the xenon effect. Yes, the lamp emits light with a temperature of as much as 5000K, which is closest to sunlight, but this is achieved by the banal coloring of the bulb in blue. At the same time, the manufacturer did not bother to change the design of the lamp itself, which is why a weak filament simply cannot break through the colored glass and gives out only about 700 lm!

By comparison, even conventional halogen lamps, without dimming technology, will put out at least 1400 lumens. Thus, you can recommend an outsider of our rating only if you just want to achieve a beautiful view during the day. But to use such lighting equipment at night is highly not recommended.

The permanent leader in the lighting market, including for cars, has in its range of halogen lamps excellent specimens that imitate the glow of xenon. The PHILIPS H7 Diamond Vision features a dyed quartz bulb that emits light at a color temperature of 5000K, creating a high quality illusion of xenon sources.

User reviews note high-quality lighting at night. In fog and rain on the highway, they sharply “surrender” in their effectiveness, but they are perfect for operation in the city. These lamps are also characterized by many owners as the most reliable and durable. In general, they cope with their tasks - the luminous flux is pleasing to the eye, does not cause fatigue and fights well with darkness on unlit sections of roads. For harsher weather conditions, if desired, they cannot compete with conventional halogen lamps, whose light temperature is closer to 3200 K.

And again, Osram products take the first place. This model has an excellent balance, which is lacking in the previous two participants.Cool Blue Intense combines a fairly high light temperature (4200K) and a very good brightness of 1500 lm.

Thus, this lamp will give a xenon effect without sacrificing illumination and, accordingly, safety.

For regular xenon in car headlights, the Optima Premium H7 is just perfect. Judge for yourself - due to the fastening of the quartz bulb to the base through a damper ring made of non-ferrous metal, the reliability of the equipment and its durability have seriously increased.From repeated temperature drops (no matter what they say about low power consumption, but the luminous flux of 2600 Lm still heats the bulb), the seat is now reliably protected and does not loosen.

In addition, increased resistance to shock loads. Tests in off-road conditions have shown the excellent endurance of this equipment. In the reviews of owners using Optima Premium H7 xenon headlights, this is fully confirmed. On rough terrain or difficult road sections, the lamps behave confidently, working stably for at least 2000 hours - much longer than conventional halogen ones. Their compatibility with almost all regular (and not only) ignition units, the presence of a wide range of colors in the temperature range from 3000 to 8000 K and a rather attractive price are also appreciated.

Clearlight offers the brightest xenon lamps for low beam headlights. They cost an order of magnitude more affordable than the products of such flagship lighting equipment as Osram and Philips, and at the same time demonstrate better performance. Through the use of new technology, it was possible to achieve a higher gas pressure in the flask. This significantly increased the brightness of the luminous flux and improved the viewing range on the night road. In addition, a color temperature of 5000 K provides a cool white light that is most effective at night.

In addition, these automotive lamps have an extended service life. Independent tests showed excellent results - the resource is at least 3000 hours.At the same time, their "life" does not depend on the nature of the operation - the lamps are quite resistant to shock vibrations, which do not have a particular effect on the Clearlight Xenon Premium H7.

The best representative of xenon lamps in our ranking is MTF Light H7. This model satisfies all the requirements for "clear" xenon. This is a high color temperature (6000K), the closest to natural sunlight, and a very high brightness (2800 lm), which cannot be achieved using conventional halogen lamps.

Also, the guaranteed service life of 2000 hours cannot but rejoice. This, for a moment, is about 5 times higher than that of "halogens". Finally, a fairly low cost - only about 900 rubles. Can you recommend this model? Undoubtedly.

Thanks to unique high-tech solutions, the ZES-X3 car lamp provides the driver with a better view of the night road with a range of about 500 m. The LEDs are resistant to heat and vibration, give a dense luminous flux, which, according to tests, is really about 6000 Lm. When installed in low beam headlights, the position of the lamp is adjusted with a special key for the base (included in the delivery), which allows you to optimally adjust the optics for use on public roads.

The correct operation of these powerful light sources for cars is maintained in a wide temperature range - from -40 to 60 ° C. They have a high security class (IP65) and an infinitely long service life - 30 thousand hours (almost 3.5 years of continuous operation!). Efficient cooling of the lamp is provided by a passive radiator with a multi-component architecture - a large resource was largely achieved thanks to its innovative design.

The car lamp NARVA H7 Range Power LED 6000 K can safely be considered the “little brother” of the leader in the rating (the company is a subsidiary of PHILIPS). The huge difference in cost and similar operating parameters largely determine the preference of choice for many domestic car owners. The cut-off line is clear, with the correct setting of the lamp and high-quality optics, the low beam will not blind the oncoming traffic and will provide an excellent overview of the road.

The manufacturer gives a guarantee for these lights for a period of 12 months, but they last much longer.Their reliability is largely determined by an efficient heat dissipation system, which is patented by the company, and is a "chip" of this model. In addition, the design provides better protection against moisture and dust. It is at a high level, and fully complies with the international standard for this type of equipment.

Another bright representative of the Sho-Me company, whose advantages include reduced power with unchanged parameters of the emitted light. The LEDs in this kit are content with 30 W of energy per pair, but at the same time they give out a luminous flux (3000 Lm) of bright white color (temperature of 5000 K). By the way, the efficiency of the glow of the lamps does not disappear throughout the entire service life, which is a decent 30 thousand hours.

Despite the Chinese origin of Sho-Me LH H7, the main element of the lamps - LEDs - were borrowed (read, purchased) from the American company CREE. Otherwise, the architecture of the kit is based on elements produced within the Chinese company itself (fans, housings, plinths). Perhaps the only serious drawback of these light bulbs is the high cost - the mass consumer is not morally ready to part with such amounts for the purchase of small things.

Despite the record high cost of the PHILIPS LED H7 X-treme Ultinon LED lamp, it deservedly heads this category of the rating.Many tests carried out by various publications, as well as the experience of the owners of these automotive light sources, allow us to speak of this product as the most advanced and advanced solution for the night road. When installed in standard low beam headlights with lenses, the PHILIPS LED H7 X-treme Ultinon lamp gives a beautiful and powerful radiation with a cool white tint (6000 K at a brightness of 1750 lumens) and a clear cut-off separation. As a result, the view of the night road is almost perfect, and at the same time there is no “illumination” of the oncoming traffic.

The build quality is the best on the market. For ease of installation in a car, it is possible to remove the radiator of the active lamp cooling system (when turned on, a miniature cooler starts up). In addition, many owners were pleasantly surprised by the manufacturer's thoughtfulness - the kit comes with 2 mini-boxes for old halogen lamps, which can be stored as a reserve after replacement. But there is no particular need for this - X-treme Ultinon have a resource of 30,000 hours and perfectly tolerate vibration loads from bad roads.
