Philips dl50 hid bulb

[teamSVTour]

Yea, I just want/need one pair to worn with my 50w ballasts on my car

 

[BRANDONHID]

I am in need of a pair of DL50 Fatboy bulbs. Does anyone have any of these bulbs???? Email me @ [email protected] if you have any.

 

[windstrings]

I didn't know any were for sale?

And why do the buyers all have brand new accounts?

Is someone advertising in the marketplace?

 

[BRANDONHID]

Windstrings, why are you asking so many questions? If you must know I have 55w ballast on my car and was advised the fatboy bulbs would be better than running a 35w bulb. As mentioned before, comments have been made on hidplanet about members of this forum possibly having the bulb. Nobody said the bulbs were for sale, I am simply asking because this is the bulb that will be the best for my setup. Somebody interested in a sale, please let me know. I signed up to this forum because there was not another way to ask if anyone had the bulbs for sale without doing so.

I bet BVH is chumming the waters! :kiss: I would perhaps sell some....but the idea of using them for holiday house lights always looms large.

Probably car headlight guys looking/searching for DL-50's for high power applications...


Come on LUX and BVH give up those bulbs


$90 each is about as low as you can get these. Don't think these are manufactured anymore so it's up from there

If anyone tried to email me, I did not get the message because I mispelled the email address. It is [email protected] and I did edit the information in the earlier post. Thanks.

Good luck on that.:shakehead

 

[garyq]

well is usd 80-90 per bulb not realistic? am willing to pay for that price for a brand new dl50

 

[windstrings]

Gary there are cheaper DL50's.. its just that the "fat boys" are a special breed that can take the punishment of being overdriven so that more wattage and more effective lumens can be broadcast.

Not worth having unless your wanting high performance and have the ballast to drive it.

 

[garyq]

windstrings: thanks for your comments. What are my options? any bulb that's near to the fatboys in terms of lighting performance?

 

[windstrings]

If you have the stock 50W ballast, you can't utilize the real advantages of the fatboy anyway...might as well run a stock dl50 bulb.

Some argue that due to the robustness of the fatboy, the bulb life is longer..... given that, its not really a bargain anymore for the price unless you have a special needs application where you are driving it with more voltage from a hotter ballast.

The Fatboy is a bulb that Dan ran across back when he was developing the Barnburner "if I have my facts right"
They are fairly hard to find anymore... I believe Dan still has a pretty good supply though last I heard... but they aren't free.

The barnburner runs at 75W and a normal dl50 would not endure that punishment for long and there would be lots of warranty issues... but the fatboy was found to be trusted as being able to take even up to 100W "thats pushing it!" and still survive, howbeit I'm sure longevity suffers big time at that wattage.

There are bulb guru's out here and I"m not one of them... I only know a little because I used to own a barnburner.

I"m not sure what your putting it in, but a normal dl50 getting hit with 50 - 60 Watts should be fine.

I just came across this thread after a long leave of absence from CPF. BVH, Lux, you guys are incredible!!!

I can understand flashlight hoarding but BULB hoarding by the boxes !!! LOL!!!!!

Congratulations on your steal guys. I still have my BarnBurner and will never part with it. Too useful !!Though I have a spare FatBoy now I am more comfortable.
