I would still like to check them out when you get them.

Still on my "to do" list. I'll keep you posted.

I got these when they first came out and I don't think they are that bright.
I would definately save the money, it's not worth it's price. They do match the HID lights real good though.

I believe you mentioned on another thread that the Mycarr/PredatorIce were 5 watts.

I have the generic 3 watt now and I like the 6000K color but no improvement over stock as far as light level - but definitely looks better.

AiB prefers not to get into the wattage/terminology war. Basically they are able to achieve the greatest brightness compared to anyone else's product because of the way the light is extracted out of the LED. Their patented system allows the highest possible extraction efficiency possible (at least until they are able to improve it further with advanced technology as introduced).

Simply put - AiBs are able to use less wattage but extract more light.

This helps greatly with with thermal management which competitors ignore. That's why those products are starting to die more and more.

Hope this helps. :thumbup:
