Does anyone know the brightness In lumens of H13 high beams?

[The CEO]

I am trying to decided whether or not to just put in low beam HID (xenon) headlamps or wait to fight a hi/low bi-xenon system. So a comparison of the luminous output (lumens) of the H13 halogen high beams versus just low beam xenon's would be helpful. Thanks!

I don't have the answer other to say, not nearly enough

I have the same feeling about the stock H13 halogens. I found out that Osram was the company that invented the H13 and on their website they have ZERO information about the bulb and dont even list it on their replacement bulb guide.

low 1000 +/- 15%; high 1500 +/- 15%

Well I guess I am going to get just a low beam kit which has around 3000lm output!

There´s a prob with H13 HID-conversions. The bulb is designed with a lo-beam-wire at the front and a highbeam-wire behind it. The Lo-Beam is shaded by a cap you see in the headlampunit.

A Xenon-bulb will be fired on all the length, so the headlamp will be " as high-beamed", and there is no highbeam-bulb on the socket mounted - need to drill a hole anywhere in the reflector. Not really a good way to tread the headlamps.

Dont know how it is with the Bi-Xenon, sended my Single-Xenon-kit back and waiting for further information by my dealer.
