I have been humbled. Well on my personal case they 'seem' brighter. As to
seeing their use in the actual fog conditions or anyother cases when the
spectrum will matter, I will let you know ;). Then again my after-market
foglights (pilot's) are about as bright as a Griswald Xmas Tree. I am
appeased, I didn't pay anymore than I paid for replacement bulbs and still
have my factory bulbs good as new if they should happen to go kaput.
