Well.. Im into lights and all and I´m going to take on a little Project come Thursday.
Ill be trying out diffrent conversions on the Multistrada 1200 lowbeam and see if I cant make the lights better without dazzling anyone. Now.. This test is only applicable to the Multistrada Gen2 that use H11 bulbs on the lowbeam. On the highbeam, there are some options.. Best on being to modify a H9 halogen buld slightly and use that. 600 lumens more for only 65w Power instead of 55w. Im not going to get into that part.
The Bulbs I´ll be testing are.
HALOGEN
H11 Phillips Longlife (stock)
H11 Osram Nightbreaker Unlimited (Plug and play, the brightest halogen upgrade availble)
Xenon/HID
H11 35W HID/Xenon Canbus
H11R 35W HID/Xenon Canbus (R is for reflector, suppose to cut down on glare when modifying the lowbeam)
Both kits use CN light high quality bulbs in 4300K and Canbus Slim ballasts of high quality
LED
IPF H8/H11/H16 LED Headlight conversion kit fan cooled - Newly developed and extremly well made by IPF, who are to Japan what Osram and Phillips are to Germany.
IPF H8/H11/H16 LED Foglight conversion kit no fan - Newly developed and extremly well made by IPF, who are to Japan what Osram and Phillips are to Germany.
Noname Ebay H8/H11 fan kit. - The cheap $100 or so you find on ebay/wish
Ill be checking fitment, lightpattern output and glare aswell as a subjective comment about fitting.
Tune in on Friday to see what is what!
Headlight
Did this Before using IPF H4 LED conversion bulbs for the Volvo 240 club and the results where a clear win for the IPF Fan cooled model!
Here is the stock bulb vs the IPF LED conversion kit lightpattern. (Note: EU full size H4 reflector, not sealed beam duals)
