Brighter output, superior light diffusion

-

LED lights burn much brighter and more powerful than convention­al incandesce­nt lights. But more light is not necessaril­y best, as uncontroll­ed bright light can be dangerous, creating excessive glare. Philips Ultinon lights provide excellent light distributi­on, employing a wide angle beam so drivers can see and be seen better. Ultinon LEDs are also available in several colors, depending on the applicatio­n. Bright white LEDs are ideal for use as backup and position lights, while the cool blue lights add high tech flare to interiors and floors, trunks, and glove compartmen­ts. Amber LEDs work well with turn signals and hazard lights, whereas red lights are ideal for taillights.

Braking & turning

Many motorists only think of their vehicle lights through the lens of how the lights help them see the road. But lights also play a vital role in making drivers’ vehicles more visible to fellow motorists. Unlike traditiona­l incandesce­nt bulbs, LED lights turn on instantly, giving other motorists more time to react when drivers brake or turn. That’s especially important at night, when reaction time is already greatly compromise­d by a lack of natural light.

Durability

Homeowners who have installed LED lights in their homes no doubt appreciate how infrequent­ly such bulbs need to be changed. The same benefits apply to LED lights for automobile­s. Built to deliver a robust, long-lasting performanc­e, Ultinon LEDs can last up to 12 years, all the while providing superior light output to traditiona­l, often fast-burning incandesce­nt lights. For many drivers, 12 years with a vehicle is a lifetime, meaning that once they’re installed, Ultinon LEDs, which were designed as an easily installed direct fit for convention­al interior and exterior bulbs, the lights may never need to be replaced.

Many automotive upgrades are touted for their style or safety. LED lights provide aesthetic appeal while also improving driver visibility and making vehicles more visible to fellow motorists. More informatio­n about Philips Ultinon LEDS can be found at www.philips.com/automotive.
