Headlight Savings Time: Brighter is Better

Did you know that 80% of headlight bulbs burn out during the darkest time of the year between October and March? Headlights dim 20-30% over time and are engineered to both have the same average lifecycle. If one bulb burns out, the other isn’t far behind! If you can’t remember the last time you replaced your bulbs, it’s probably time!

Performance vs. Life

It’s important to understand that with any high performance product, there are trade offs. In the case of bulbs, a brighter product will result in a shorter overall life because the bulb burns hotter.

Visibility Is Everything
As halogen bulbs age, they actually dim, up to 20-30%. With less light on the road, you’re seeing a lot less than you should be. And that’s a real safety concern. If you do have a burned out bulb, remember to always replace in pairs to ensure that you have balanced downroad visibility.
