The Best H1 Bulbs
Halogen H1 Bulbs
The most popular H1 bulbs are halogen bulbs. Thanks to new technologies they are constantly being improved. This model of lamp appeared quite a long time ago and is the standard lighting for many modern car headlights.
Halogen H1 bulbs are lit by filaments of halogen and tungsten. These elements heat up and create light without causing thermal damage to your vehicle. These are the most common type of H1 bulbs for car headlights, they usually come with cars and are not very expensive.
Halogen H1 bulbs are used in headlights and high beam headlights, as well as in fog lights of the car.
The most popular brands of H1 Halogen Bulbs:
- OSRAM
- Philips
- SYLVANIA
- Hella
- Bosch
- Fukurou
A good halogen H1 bulb is characterized by these factors:
- Luminance (1,500 LM per bulb or more)
- Color temperature (3 000 – 4 500 K)
- Power consumption (65w – 80w)
- The luminance of the bulb
- Bulb life (500 hours and longer)
H1 LED Bulbs
H1 LED headlight bulbs for automobiles are among the brightest headlight bulbs you can install in your car. They are usually installed in the fog lights of the car.
In many modern cars, manufacturers have started installing LED H1 bulbs on new cars. LED H1 bulbs are very popular because of their ability to resist overheating and consume less electricity. The LED H1 bulbs cost a little more than a halogen bulb, but the LED H1 bulbs have a higher light intensity and color temperature, as well as a much longer lifespan.
The most popular brands of LED Bulbs H1:
- OSRAM
- Philips
- Hikari
- SEALIGHT

HID Xenon Light Bulbs H1
Xenon H1 bulbs are bright white in color, they generally emit brighter light than halogen bulbs, so they can be hazardous to the eyes. In Xenon H1 bulbs, high intensity light is produced by the glow of xenon gas initiated by an arc discharge between two electrodes. A special high-voltage unit is required to start and operate such a lamp. HID Xenon H1 bulbs are more expensive than H1 halogen bulbs, but have a higher light intensity.
