Hi Jay/Cor etc, The Termitor (box label) Fahren LED lights are H13/9008, two leds per, High & Low beams, 3 pins - matching the original bulb connector, just pop in. Shows 26000 Lumens 6500K color rendition (blue-white), $50 for two LED bulbs. It looks like on Amazon they also sell 40K lumen even brighter for $64 in H13 hi/lo beam style.
With regards to lumens: The great god google: "3000 lumen is the national limit. 6500k means it's that blue-white light color. Most of the LED bulbs on Amazon MASSIVELY overstate their true numbers, but some of them are legitimately that bright (and illegal to use on the road)." https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DG8ZW3FJ?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title The Chinese product lumen rating appears to be inflated. They're brighter than the existing headlights, about what the Chevy Bolt is but would have to get a lumen meter for an accurate number - but they're a huge improvement. Not sure about reliability, time will tell, got 4.3 stars on Amazon Have a renewable energy day, Mark Mark E.

They sell 24,000 33,000 and 44,000...some of which I worry may be illegally bright...
