LED headlights (again)

[awright2009]

So I've always used Opt7 Fluxebeam H11 headlights for my 2014 Silverado LTZ Crew Cab and have been happy with them. Sure they die right after the two year warranty, but they've worked great in the heat and the winter (although the fan sounds pretty bad when it's super cold)

 

Today I noticed one bulb is out and I look online and see that they are no longer available.  Maybe it's the virus, maybe they were discontinued, who knows.

 

But being that these bulbs are 4 years old now at least since I've started using them, I figure technology in LED lighting has improved since then. What do you guys use? And do you currently have the dust cap installed (or at least can you install the dust cap with the LED bulb on) -- I want the dust cap on for my truck

 

Maybe one day I'll have a headlight without a fan on it (we can dream can't we?)

Go for the GTR Ultra Series 2 or the Morimoto 2.0, these are made of better quality hand components than the Opt7s, and will last much longer.

Here is some information I found when I was looking for better lights. I went with the SV-4 and don't regret it. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the suggestions, went ahead and ordered up some morimoto 2Stroke 2.0‘s from amazon, they look smaller and improved design wise from the Opt7’s. Seems they came out in 2018, here to hope that they outlast the warranty and if not that the company is still around when they do. $129.90 after tax for me, other ones were a bit more expensive (but that lifetime warranty seems tempting)
