Caterham LED Headlights - any experience?

[AndrewE]

Ta,

anyone experience the bulbs Frosty used in 7" lights?

I also fitted the same bulbs as Frosty linked, again in 5 3/4" bowls.  I find them a huge improvement over the standard bulbs, would imagine you'd also see the improvement with 7" lights.

Thanks for the info guys, I've just ordered a set, same as Frosty's link.

Please could you take some photos of the beam pattern, dipped and main, when you've only changed one side to make it easy to compare old and new?

Thanks

Jonathan

I bought a couple of the G6 H4 LED lamps off Cindy from Evitek via Alibaba a few years ago, https://evitekhid.en.alibaba.com/product/60501482019-802326993/H4_LED_headlight_canbus_version_xenon_kit_high_lumen_hi_lo_beam_single_beam_hot_sell_china_factory_motorcycle_headlight_bulb.html

I have these lamps fitted in the Seven, my Tintop and my KTM 690, they needed a bit of adjustment to get the beam patterns right, mainly needing rotating to get the orientation exactly the same as a H4 bulb.

I have just ordered a further 2 sets of lamps off Cindy, one set of their F2 lamps and one set of their G7 lamps.
F2 https://evitekhid.en.alibaba.com/pr..._Car_HeadlampBulb_6500K_Car_Headlamp_Led.html
G7 https://evitekhid.en.alibaba.com/pr...pm=a2700.8304367.prewdfa4cf.23.34b662be1xu2Gi

The F2's are the latest, very closely emulating the positioning and dimensions of the original H4.

the G7's are an update to the G6's with better heat dissipation and the fan has been removed and a large heatsink is fitted instead, these look like the one's listed in the links earlier in the thread.

Both these newer lamps have allowances for fine tuning the rotation to suit whatever reflector they are installed into.

I will be trying the two different types out in Tintop and Seven when they arrive.

The F2's were $39.52 ( I paid for them to be shipped separately to avoid customs fees), the G7's were $46.28.

At the bottom of the Alibaba page there's an 'email to this supplier' box, It may have Haily or Vicky Huang, or Cindy Zhou as the recipient, all coworkers, either deal with Haily / Vicky or mention Cindy and they'll pass your details across to her.
She'll give you a price, you give her an email address to raise a paypal invoice against, she will need delivery address and contact number off you.

Tell her Dave Pratt sent you.
