If you're looking for some serious light output, this newest Q18 LED series will give you just that. Each LED bulb is 60W which makes it one of the most powerful LED bulb in the LED market. The bulbs use a turbo cooling fan to keep them at their operating temperature. The canbus LED driver is attached to the bulb.

Technical Info:
People often ask if H8, H9 and H11 are the same or different. They fit the same but they vary by the wattage and light output in their HALOGEN form. An H11 halogen bulb has a 55W filament optimized for long life at the expense of lower light output. H11 55W is most often used in a low beam position. An H9 halogen bulb has a 65W filament optimized for maximum light output at the expense of shorter lifespan. H9 is most often used in a high beam position. H8 halogen bulb has a 35W filament with a much lower light output that the H9 and H11 bulbs. H8 fits the same as H9 and H11 but the bulb tabs are thinner than those of an H11 bulb and may need to be adjusted for an LED bulb to fit the headlight. H8 is normally used in fog lamps.
When upgrading to LEDs, if you match the power draw between the halogen and the LED, then you will have less issues with lights shutting off or needing canbus decoders.
- Low beam H11 55W halogen bulbs draw 4.10A@12V - the Q18 draws 1.1 Amp more than the halogen bulb thus preventing it from "bulb out" errors.
- High beam H9 65W halogen bulbs draw 4.98A@12V - the Q18 draws 0.2 Amp more than the halogen bulb thus preventing it from "bulb out" errors.
Dimensions:
- Total bulb length: 7.7cm
- Bulb Fan diameter: 3.5cm
- Space needed for the bulb's fan at the back of the headlight: 2.7cm
- LED driver size: 5.3cm (L) x 2.8cm (W) x 1.5cm (H)
Installation:
When installing this bulb, ensure that LED chips are facing to the sides of the headlight, one side towards the fender and the other towards the grille. Also make sure that the power cable on the back of the fan is at 6 o'clock pointing straight down. This ensures proper LED alignment in the headlight.
