New LED headlights came in today

The color temp (kelvin is 6500k). The box says they are 6000 lumen. I also grow indoor tropical trees for part of my living and know WAY too much about color temps and lumens haha.
They come out of the box, in the correct possition (makes it a little difficult with the instructions saying otherwise, but they'll get that sorted out.)

Bulbs are 3000 lumen each, total output is 6000 lumen. your HIDs are not 10000 lumen, i'll tell you that. Probably 10k temperature.
HID's won't produce as much lumen output as LEDs.
Temperature on these LEDs are 6500k - pure white
The bulbs don't look bright in his photo because it looks like he took the photos in daylight inside his garage area... not at night yet (he told me it's raining so no night photos yet)

HIDs can and have produced more lumens than LEDs. All depends on wattage they are being driven by, same for LEDs. That's like stating aV8 will always have more power than aV6. If that V6 has twin turbos it'll have more power than most V8s.

"The color temperature of a light source is the temperature of an ideal black-body radiator that radiates light of comparable hue to that of the light source. With unit Kelvin(unit symbol K), color temperatures over 5000K called cool white, 4000K-5000K pure white, and 2700K-3000K warm white."

I'm not trying to start a fight just stating what I see. They are one of the better if not best PNP LEDs out there from what I can tell from the pictures. They do have their downsides as I stated before, but for the most part they look good.. Waiting for my night pictures..
FYI TRS is currently in mid production of adjustable LEDs too and also virtual filament LED or whatever they call it haha. But that's for blinkers, running lights etc. Not headlights.

6500k is not pure white. Either these are blue or not 6500k.

I can't say what's going on yet but there are adjustable LED's coming within the next few months, for headlights... that let you change a few things here/there.
I don't buy/sell the TRS LED's just the morimotos from them and HID if people need them. I sell the Diode Dynamics ones.
I could honestly get half the Diode Dynamics cheaper overseas but they have great customer support and good R&D so to me, the extra money is worth it for that.

My buddy and I retrofit and we do it thru his business. I do it more as a hobby he does it as a second job. His business is tinting, car stereo, retrofitting, and other odds and ends. Plus he's a professional photographer.

As soon as the rain stops I will get the review. Weather has not been on my side the past two days. Looks better the rest of this week though.

I promise a review is coming! Rained all weekend so that wouldn't make for very good night shots. Work at 5 am today and tomorrow. Tuesday night or Wednesday night I will get all the night photos and post everything comparing these leds against sylvania zxe halogens.
I take full responsibility of the photos promised of these leds.
