Philips RacingVision +150% H7 headlight bulb 12972RVS2, twin pack - chrome

I am a chauffeur and I drive a lot of time at night so it was always important to have good headlights for better vision. This was the first time that I bought this product and I have experienced quite a few different things with it. Let's start with the good things. Pros: I changed both bulbs as there was a quite a big difference in brightness between regular and a racing vision H7. The difference is very noticeable although don't expect a white LED light effect. It will be still yellow but not as much. It has a little bit white effect compered to other halogen light but still in the yellow spectrum. Unfortunately this is the only positive side of this light. Cons: It will change how your headlights are reflecting as I had to lower it because way to many people flashed at me during my first night. I just bought it couple of months ago but one of them is finished already. Keep in mind that I drive at night approximately 30 hours/week so if we do count how much I've driven with them then they achieved the lifespan said by the manufacturer but on the other hand they are way to expensive to get them replaced every 2 months or less.

The OEM H7 bulbs in the Zoe are not terribly effective outside of an urban setting. Once out in the countryside, particularly the unlit country lanes, it all gets rather "interesting". These alternative bulbs make a good difference, with further penetration into the darkness ahead. They're road legal and so do not cause problems for other road users. They are likely to have a shorter life than the OEM bulbs but it is worth fitting these if you're an extra-urban driver

Bought these in Feb 2020 and they are still going strong, admittedly we haven't driven in the dark as much as usual but some reviews say these only last a couple of months, which hasn't been the case for me.... so far. Pretty brighter, brighter than the standard bulbs we had but no where near Xeon or LED. Good enough for occasional night driving, if I was driving every day in the dark for a few hours I would probably opt for something less bright and more aimed at longevity. Longer term update May 2021, bulbs still going strong, although the pandemic has likely reduced our car usage, I fully expected to be replacing these by now! Another update, replaced last week, lasted until Jan 2022. Pretty pleased overall so bought some more as replacement

So, I bought a set of my usual Xtremevision +130% for my low beams and thought I'd try these +150% for high beams. And my god, they're bright! MUCH brighter than the +130s, but word is that they have much reduced life hence why I only fitted them to high beams as I do a lot of night driviing. Highly recommended but remember that the light that shines brightest shines the shortest...

Great arrived in the 48 hrs as stated. I had +130% already fitted (one bulb blew though grrr) so exchanged both with these +150% bad boys and wow! even jumping from 130% to 150% made a hell of a difference, I was actually worried I may be ‘blinding’ on coming traffic lol. I previously went into my local high street auto car shop but they would have had to order the equivalent at double the price! These are great halogen bulbs for the price but as with most things time will tell so let’s see how long they last considering the high intensity rating they are. Fingers crossed lol.

I purchased these lights on 18th December and they arrived before Christmas. They were brilliantly bright and very effective, however one of them has blown today and they haven’t lasted a year, let alone half a year which is a little disappointing. I’ve had cheaper lights last longer than a year :( I have no way of contacting the seller so thought I’d add a review just in case so no one else comes across the same issue.

I have had in the past similar from Osram, I bought to pairs of this and after 3 weeks one went off, a week after the other one. That was a waste of money!!! I'm now expecting the other pair to go soon, VERY DISAPPOINTING!!!

Well I purchased these bulbs in December 2018 and in October one failed. Now these bulbs haven't been used much in my car, so they didn't reach the hours of expected usage. Think its about 100+ hours, Which isnt that great for car bulbs of today's tech. I wouldn't recommend as the difference in light isnt that much to a normal bulb. (which apparently alot of people say this) So as I say steer clear of these bulbs, Disappointed with Philips. To be honest think the company is letting standards slide. I have been given a full refund from Amazon, so cant complain on that angle. My wife has Bosch bulbs in her BMW and they are brighter. These where bought in Halfords and where similar price at the time. They are older and still going. Also they are giving off better light. Hope this helps someone out.

I used it to replace low beam projector of Tata Nexon (XZ+ O) of 2021 model. The stock headlight bulb was of Osram 55 watt halogen. Philips Racing Vision (150) are marginally brighter. You can go for it.

Faccio una premessa,montavo delle lampade commerciali da 55 watt con temperatura 6000k quindi bianco puro e che fanno un ottima luce,le utilizzo da anni su diverse vetture e sulla mia polo aw1 le ho montate subito all'incirca 1 anno fa(hanno anche una lunga durata),qualche giorno fa mi sono imattuto in qualche video,vedendo queste racing vision e mi sono deciso a cambiarle seppur le mie erano buone. Cambiata la prima lampada e accendendo le luci la prima mia reazione è stata quella di rimpacchettare tutto e rispedirle al mittente,il faro lato passeggero completamente tendente al giallo,e quello lato guida di un bel bianco,ho allegato anche la foto ma sinceramente non rende l'idea,la lampada lato passeggero è molto più gialla. Passata anche questa fase di rabbia,mi sono detto...vabbè monto anche l'altra,le provo su strada e poi vedo. Nella prima foto si vede il fascio delle mie vecchie lampade tendenti al bianco,nella seconda si vede il fascio delle racing vision molto più sul giallo,ma se ci fate caso l'intensità è molto più marcata e pulita. Nella prova su strada sono rimasto sbalordito,nelle strade buie sembra di guidare di giorno,è incredibile il fascio di luce sia in verticale che in orizzontale,tutto ciò si traduce in massima sicurezza. Nel titolo ho usato il termine camaleontica e sapete perchè? Montate il pomeriggio la luce guardando i fari risultava estremamente gialla,ed invece la sera sembra molto più bianca...è incredibile. Detto tutto ciò alla fine mi ritengo molto ma molto soddisfatto,è vero ho perso quel look pure white con visione molto buona,ma ora ho delle lampade di un bianco naturale più tendente verso il giallo,ma la visione è spettacolare,secondo me non ha rivali come alogene (sugli abbaglianti monto Osr night bracker laser),e poi si è in regola con il codice della strada.....rischiare di farsi ritirare il libretto e far decadere l'assicurazione con lampade non omologate non ha senso. Ora toccherà vedere la durata

Los acabo de usar hoy y si es un cambio para mi de noche, ya veo bastante sobre todo los reflejantes voy a tener que bajar la altura de los faros ya que si deslumbre a varios conductores :/, usaba led y si se extraña el color de luz pero a distancia se difuminan bastante ya que mi coche tienen lupas y en carretera no ves nada por eso cambie a estos y los recomiendo. Subiré una foto de noche uno con led y el otro con philips racing para comparar diferencia.

Better than the OE bulbs!

C'è poco da dire. Soddisfa appino quanto scritto sulla confezione.
