I'm ordering projectors Friday but can't decide if I want 6,000k or 8,000k H1 bulbs to go in them.

Can you guess with projectors please post pics of you 6,000k and or 8,000k projectors?

Keep in mind that I need as many pictures as possible. I'm a very visual person.

Also, pictures of the beam on the street and walls are good too.

Thank you for all your help with assisting me with my project.

I have 6,000k now in my halogen housing. I just want have an exotic look. I don't want the light output to be similar to cars like Lexus. I want it to be a little more standout'ish.

well 6k in a halogen housing is nothing compared to a 6K in a projector housing. in a halogen its scattered and force fed in your face.. projectors when pointed correctly are just on the road and looks very clean and sharp

i would agree with joe here. 6K is blue hue's - anything after that is "what the hell is that shiot" :D

i have 5K which is strictly white only hint of blue is on initial first seconds upon light up..then its straight white.

gl though yo-

Halogen looks less blue than projector IMO. I think when the light passes through the glass in the projector it picks up more of a blue tint. I have 4300k in my projectors and it's bright white with a tint of blue. But depends if you're going for looks or function. Looks IMO 5-6k for function 4300-4500k

I'd still like to see pictures. I know what 6,000k look like in projectors but not 8,000k.

I want to compare with my own eyes.

And yes, I am leaning mire towards 6,000k but still want to know what 8,000k look like.

itll look pink :D

but seriously its hard to capture actual lighting to compare with out actually seeing it with your own eyes... even the best cameras can not capture the proper light output so then youd still be guessing until you actually see it in person...

sort of like how you can get a idea of an exhaust sound through a sound clip but dont really know what itll sound like until you actually hear it on your jeep or someones else jeep...

cheers-

8,000k projector pics aren't in that thread. Lol. I don't think I saw any projector pics. Lol.

No, not with projectors. Lol.

Although Escalades will blind the hell out of you.

Doesn't Scott have 8,000k in his?

Anybody know the stock bulb temp of a Cadillac Escalade?
 
#18 ·
The Escalade must use 55 watt ballasts and bulbs then because those things are white/blue and extra extra bright.

Thanks Rob.

I think I'm going with 6,000k because I don't think a bluer low beam would mesh well with the PIAA Ion yellow fog light beam.

Those aren't projectors.
