i saw an integra with those and they weren't that bright
I guess im used to seeing it as 12k or 9k or 6k.......br0nx finest said:Actually, it will ONLY appear to be bright due to its concentration and the way our eyes perceive different wavelengths of the color spectrum. And if you look at the lumens ratings of kits past 6000k you will see the difference in true output, there is a reason OEM uses 4100k 8)
12,000k = 12,000, the K stands for Kelvin which is the measurement of color temp. Lol it is in the visible light temp. spectrum but I doubt its useable road light.
Your supplier must be bullshitting you, because here's the Kelvin color temp scale in terms of what our eyes see, and anything "10k" would be blue.slammedSI said:not to thread jack but, i have been getting in yellow HID's, from 4000k to 10000k, when they get to the higher k's it turns orenge. looks pretty cool, and there still dot approved.

Got any pics of ur retro?? i thought the TSX's where 3100 KDont_Tri said:Just incase you didn't know it's the lower the k's the brighter the HIDs. I have a retro fit TSX HID 6000k and I get high beamed when I'm waiting for a light from on coming traffic. These suckers are bright and imagine I want to convert my fog's to 3000k hids.
are they the factory D2S bulbs?Dont_Tri said:Just incase you didn't know it's the lower the k's the brighter the HIDs.
