September 2016: Above review is erroneous! I had replaced the high beam when I thought it was the low beam and so my test of the bulb was totally inaccurate. Make sure you know which bulb is high beam and which is low! Later in the summer I determined that the X-treme bulb WAS much brighter. So on 9/20/16 I had my mechanic replace the left side high beam with the same X-treme vision H7 and both low-beams with a different model Philips H7 lamp. Of course I now have all new light bulbs and they ARE bright! I recommend that you replace all your bulbs if you think your bulbs are old and you cannot see very well at night when it is raining. The cost is minimal and the savings could be your life. My lenses are very clear and so were not an issue. Replace your lenses if you cannot get them to clear up with a cleaning liquid. Also my 2007 Saab 9.5 DOES have four H7 bulbs which is not clear in the Owner's Manual. Further if you are replacing all four bulbs you may want to do just as I did: put the X-treme Vision bulbs in the high beam location, and a bright general purpose Philips bulb in the low beam positions (outside bulbs both left and right). The X-treme Vision has a fairly narrow beam spread so that it can penetrate a great distance as claimed. Note: My mechanic installed the right side low beam bulb upside down. I could tell that something was wrong by comparing the two low beams; the left side seemed normal (looking at the beam on my white garage door when closed) but the right side was very low and did not light the road very well. I knew that the bulb should be installed with the bulb base rotated so that the flat side would be on the BOTTOM. I guessed that the flat side was on the top. I decided to rotate the bulb myself first removing the air intake hose and then displacing the mass airflow meter taking care to not pull on the associated wiring harness. This is all done to gain better access to the right low-beam bulb. After removing the rubber over, I pulled the wire plug off the bulb, then released the spring clip holding the bulb. It was then quite easy to rotate the bulb 180 degrees. I used a large makeup mirror held by a plastic covered wire to check progress. Once rotated I completed the installation in reverse order making sure that the mass airflow meter and intake air hose were installed correctly. Fortunately the mating parts have large male-female indents making it nearly impossible to assemble incorrectly.
For the record, they do not provide +130% OVER normal bulbs. in fact the don't even provide +80% and here is how they come to this number. +130% is over standard bulbs since standard bulbs are 45W @ 12v (3.25amp) then a 55W @ 13.8 bulb is 120% (or 20% over standard) the other 10% is based on light output being closer to daylighting white and using a hotter filament. theses numbers are not derived from Lumen or lux that being said they do offer more lux compared to standard at the cost of lifespan.
if I was the me from 3 weeks ago I would opt for the standard German made bulbs since they would give me 90% of the light at 1/3 of the price and would last 2x more.

Ahora respecto a un Philips tradicional ya sea el foco normal o el foco long life si creo que su alcance es de al menos un 50% mas lejano quiza incluso un poco mas y de su intensidad o saturacion en su brillantes si considero es al menos un 35 o 45% mas intenso.
Si lo recomiendo para tener focos de tipo Original (oem) que trabajen a temperaturas que no deformen o quemen tus faros, el aspecto va a ser de un faro de un carro recien salido de agencia, van bien en faros de retroproyector sencillo y aquellos que traen una lupa.
No esperes que se vea como luz led o luz de xenon mucho menos un hiper led… recuerda este es un foco alógeno.
Es una buena opcion para tenerlo tanto en altas como en Bajas, de hecho personalmente he montado estas en Bajas y en las altas unas Vision Plus (Que se supone dan menos luz pero proyectan muy bien).
Vienen 2 focos en este paquete
The brightness compared with the factory original lamps was impressive, and marginally whiter too. However, this does gradually worsen over time as the lamp burns. Still, they’re road legal and do the job just fine.
I have an Audi A3 2.0 TDI which means the space under the bonnet is limited - making fitting a little tricky. However, this isn’t Philips specific and will be the case for any other brand. Just be sure to look out for the pins and prongs on the base of the lamp - if the thing isn’t fitting properly, just check to ensure you’ve not bent any out of shape preventing them fitting properly! That got me for a good hour before I compared both lamps to realise the one I had tried to fit (and failed) has a slight bend. A small bit of finger pressure and we were good to go.
