    I traveled 10 years on xenon now I have the usual H4 ... massacre.
    MASAKRA is good or bad?

    Has anyone used LED H4?
    I am asking for impressions, opinions, and in particular for driving at night, driving in the rain.
    LEDs are now available for purchase:

    I know that the color temperature is important, not luxy ... lux in perfect measurements, and in practice it is the color of light. I know from experience that xenonon 6000 Kelvin shines in blue and you can not see anything in bad weather. How about 6000 LED Kelvin to bad weather? I am asking for opinions only THESE, what they exchanged H4 for LED 6000 H4. In the xenon, I had about 4300K. More yellow, not so white.

    Such a curiosity from the specification:
    Bosma H4 LED bulbs have no E20 approval - they are not approved for
    driving on Polish roads

    I know they are not homologated. I did not ask for homologation, but for the impression, visibility on wet asphalt at night. Maybe there are drivers on the forum who had the opportunity to ride on original xenon, and now they have new cars with LED lamps.
    Movies on the web are more like advertising, not showing the possibility of LED bulbs, especially on wet ones. I have a floodlight in the Ledowy yard and I see that it illuminates better on dry days.

    A colleague knows that something is not legal and goes on to buy such a product? Where's the point here?

    And then such a guy cries that he did not know and that if he knew he would not wear one. And the prosecutor's office proclaimed her "after all you knew that they were not allowed to move". Etc., etc., I have seen many such a croak. Look for the cause, maybe you have a tarnished reflector (plastic) or a reflector for nothing.

    Exactly, healthy headlights should properly illuminate the road and at the same time do not dazzle drivers from the opposite direction.

    Where did I write that I want to buy? Maybe someday, when it comes to the conclusion, it makes sense.
    I did not drive a second "second" for about a million kilometers and did not cause the slightest collision, but it has nothing to do with it.
    You are clinging to approval or breaking the rules. Please, show me the driver who does not break the rules in one way or another!
    As far as I know, the Philips and Bosma bulbs do not dazzle, they have the correct distribution of light. The Philips has its own bulb in its offer for Poland (the price is great).
    I am not looking for the reason for the dim lighting of my lamps because they glow normally as befits H4, but if you change from xenon to ordinary lamps, you see differences. This is the reason for my interest in a more efficient light source, at the very beginning I asked about the impressions of people who have already used LED H4. I did not ask for homologations, for advice, for matting the glass!

    If so, they must have Polish approval.

    I used such bulbs for a car, which participated in very difficult off-road rallies (time trials) and suspected damage to incandescent bulbs from extreme shocks. They were probably even a little weaker than ordinary light bulbs.

    What is different is the violation of road traffic regulations, and what is not homogeneous modification of a vehicle admitted to traffic. If someone comes to the forefront, will you be able to replace these LEDs with ordinary bulbs in the last few seconds before the accident? It is enough for the aggrieved person to say that you have blinded him, that you will find the leftovers of these LEDs in the lamps and you are hard-boiled. No translations will help.

Topic summary

The discussion centers around user experiences with LED H4 bulbs compared to traditional xenon lights, particularly for night and rain driving. Users express concerns about the visibility of 6000K LED lights in adverse weather conditions, noting that while xenon at 4300K provides better illumination, 6000K tends to shine blue and is less effective in rain. There are mentions of the legality of using non-homologated bulbs, with some users questioning the practicality of using LED bulbs that lack E20 approval for road use. The conversation highlights the importance of light distribution to avoid dazzling oncoming drivers and the need for bulbs that meet both performance and legal standards. Philips and Bosma brands are referenced, with a focus on finding suitable LED options that provide adequate visibility without violating regulations.
