Osram nightbreaker plus better than phillips xtreme vision?

Personally, Phillips has never been long lasting for me. So in terms of lifespan, Osram is better. In terms of brightness, I haven't tried xtreme vision so I can't comment

Xtreme vision is more expensive bcs its just latest right?
I found osram nightbreaker plus H4 for rm90. Good price?

There are reasons why fog lamps are usually yellowish/orange-ish and so i think these should be OK judging by the colour from the pics. Unlike HID in rain and fog....

As FGT has stated, they work like normal headlights in fog situations. They won't break a fog as easily as a properly setup foglight. But in the rain it works very well, not blind like HID in the rain!

Last time I was debating to use nightbreaker or HIDs. But when I read reviews online, they said this nightbreaker doesn't last. Lifetime very short. That's why Osram phase it out and came out with "nightbreaker Plus". It is suppose to have extra life time. And form review, they said that the light isn't vey white. Just around 4000k. But wow from your pics, it looks like it is really white! If you have written this earlier, I'd probably go for this instead of HIDs... hahaha...

Haha!

And really? My original nightbreakers are still in good condition. Dunno what I'm going to do with them now that they are out. Mind you, my "white" and your HID "white" are very different colours! Mine is more like yellow white until it's superbly bright. Yours is really pure white. So if it's white-white you're looking for, nothing beats HID or 5k+ temp range bulbs

Oh no... My HIDs are 4200k. I don't want to get rouble from those cari makan authorities. I also severely modded the glare shield to block excessive glare. SO mine is not crisp white like those 5000k. But still, your nightbreakers still seem whiter than my 4200k HID. From you pictures, I can see a bluish tinge. Mine is more to whitih-yellow. As you can see in my avatar pic..

Osrams are great.
i've been using Osram Cool Blue for like 4 years i think.
got tahan by JPJs twice for the whiteness of the bulb (which they thot was HID), but when they see the big H4 size, they just let me go..
the Cool Blues are not as bright as Nightbreaker (i think) but they get the job done and last loooonngg..
i think i'm gonna buy this Nightbreaker Plus and compare..

[Izso]

what are those H's for?

Erm.. that's the lightbulb size. H4 happens to be my Myvi size

*talking about HID's i prefer 3000k light instead of 4300k or 5000k light type

but quite hard to find/buy 3000k HID bulb...haiyyah...
