The Philips X-treme Vision and OSRAM Night Breaker Plus car headlight bulbs are made by leading bulb manufacturers and are designed to combat low visibility during the night; they are popular choices for someone looking for a brighter halogen bulb.

Both bulbs are performance products and are designed to deliver as much light on the road as possible. This is intended to make for safer night time driving - the more you can see, the safer you are, and more light means more time to react.

Both products are halogen bulbs, which use xenon gas to add extra brightness without increasing the Kelvin rating or wattage. This means that they do not generate any more heat than your standard bulb, hence remaining road legal.
