Höen city light bulbs and dLED amber sidemarker

We offer two city light solutions, introducing the advanced Hoën dLED bulb, designed as a high tech replacement for the incandescent driving light inside the Porsche 997 Turbo LED cluster.  Not suitable / tested for any other vehicle application!

We also offer the new W5W city light 3,850k that is suitable for all cars that have the city light inside the headlight housing.  Common W5W 'super white' bulbs have a common flaw, that being the coatings required to produce a HID white light produce massive amounts of heat.  This heat will melt connectors and or wiring over time so we have designed a solution that operates 30% lower in temperature and only marginally warmer than your factory equivalent.  [temperature test results]

The net result [images] is a whiter than factory bulb that runs much cooler than typical W5W 'super white' bulbs.  While it is not a perfect match to factory HID low beams it is the closest you can get without running exorbitant amounts of heat and is much whiter than stock bulbs.

Finally our new dLED_3 Amber bulb is the perfect solution for a stealth look with modern LED vibrance for sidemarker applications.

Temperature Testing

We have spent considerable time heat testing many W5W bulbs with our findings charted below.  All tests were measured by a laser thermometer (Mannix IRT2) scanning the entire bulb assembly with the highest heat point measured noted below after 5 minutes of use.

When replacing any city light bulb, especially in smaller housings, its important to note the operating temperature of the bulb your are removing and replacing.  Need a specific bulb tested?  Let us know and we will try our best to measure it and add it to the charts below.
