Can anyone give me a opinion of the difference between a Philips Vision Plus & a Narva +50 in regards to light output. You can get some info on Narva from their Website, but in regard to Philips very little. Just want to know how much brighter they are to a normal halogen. Don't want to go down the road of HID at the moment & don't have a bullbar for spotties at this stage. Thank's in advance !

Gday Shaver,
Not to sure about headlights but in my 2 rally 4000 pencil beams i tried a 55w phillips globe and left the 100w no name brand in the other spoty and i could not tell the difference between the two. I think golbes are globes regardless who make them.
Cheers

We put +50s in all our vehicles , and they do make a diff over standard globes. Mind you on Jacks you still need spotties.
But they are only $30, cheap upgrade.
Cannot comment on how they compare with Phillips.

They do make a difference but nothing like spotties. Because I put spotties on the upgrade prob wasn't worth worrying about.

Have them in my prado, (phillips) absolutely huge difference. I tried with just one globe when I was putting them in just to see the diff. Heaps brighter, and it lit up my back fence heaps more then the opposite side. With both in they are brilliant. I found them to be better on wet roads as
well, you wont be dissapointed. I still have spotties but obviously you cant use these with other vehicles around.I got
mine from TJM...........WHG

+80 means the light output, not wattage 1
