New road-legal retrofit H4-LED offers brighter, longer-lasting replacement for halogen lamps

ams OSRAM extended its Night Breaker line of automotive retrofit LEDs for headlights, introducing a new H4-LED combined low-beam/high-beam lamp which is approved for road use in Germany.

Like the Night Breaker H7 LED lamp, which OSRAM was the first manufacturer to offer in 2020, the new H4-LED lamp brings the benefits of safety, visibility and style to a wide range of makes and models of cars.

The H4-LED is brighter, lasts longer and produces a more attractive light than the halogen lamps fitted to older vehicles when they were manufactured.

Tests conducted unter the supervision of TÜV Süd show that the Night Breaker H4-LED produces 230% more light than the minimum required under the ECE R112 standard for halogen headlamps, and with 50% less glare. This means that cars fitted with the Night Breaker can see and be seen better.

In addition, the Night Breaker H4-LED lasts up to five times longer than a standard halogen lamp. This reduces the frequency of visits to the service center for lamp replacement, as well as saving on the cost of replacing failed lamps.
