Best Halogen Bulb Available?

UPDATE: check engine light went off on its own after about 50 miles.

I think the bulbs are OK. I don't know if they really look any whiter and may be a tad bit brighter. Perhaps I'm too picky. Either way, I feel they are indeed slightly better.

Well, one of the low beam GE NightHawk 9005 xenon NHX bulbs that I installed on 19Nov2016 has failed. It must have burned out today.

These bulbs have performed well for just under two years. I drive on gravel and ranch roads a fair amount, so they have seen their share of vibrations. The high beam versions are still going strong.

Has as anyone installed the newer OSRAM NightBreaker Laser HB3/9005 60watt bulbs?

they claim to be 150% brighter than stock.

If their claims are true, then they will be brighter than the NightHawks. This site has a 20% coupon that takes them down to $40.54 for the set. I think a few people have dealt with them I have not. If anyone has used these bulbs, chime in.
