Default UltraLED 6 LED wide angle vs focused bulbs

You can read up on my previous LED thread here

The passenger side UltraLED 6 LED bulb started flickering so I decided to swap out the existing units with the 'wide angle' version they also sell on the site to see if there is a difference or not.

Here is the UltraLED 6 LED focused bulb




Both of these bulb have a BA9X socket which fits perfectly into the OEM citylight socket




Here is the UltraLED 6 LED 'wide angle' bulb as you can see it looks exactly like the focused bulb but has the tip of the bulb shaved off






The wide angle bulb is on the left, focused bulb is on the right. You can see that shaving of the tips off the LEDs does in fact increase the visible light angle. The wide angle bulbs do help 'light up' the reflector a lot better than most LEDs.



Wide angle bulbs in both sides

Those 6k HID's are ANGRY.
Nice job on the comparison - it's always good to have a point of reference.
Keep up the good work!

Looks just like my lights and have had then for 3 months now - now probs yet

With the B5 u wont the Equalisers either

For me the light ouput isnt really an issue its more so the color match to the HIDs

I have tried so many diff city light bulbs until i got these

Hammered u shouldve posted with the HIDs on, i will dig up some of my photos with the LEDs and HIDs on

I posted about these bulbs a while ago on the other Audi forums but not here. This time I just tried the wide angle bulbs instead of the focused ones.

Here is a pic of my setup all on
