Want whiter HID bulbs?
Don't want to go 6000K+ and lose a crap load of output at the same time for a little whiter (really is blue purple for 6000K) bulb?
here it is
Real Philips 5000K...finally got my hands on a pair to test.
Here's a reference of all the bulbs Philips Japan offers (the picture is taken at an angle. 3000K text is now shown for the bottom bulb)
Output
85122+
85122CX
4200K
5000K
Top is 5000K bottom is 4200K (OEM)
For those pursuit the white output without losing too much lumen. this would be it.

Nice pics Paul, I thought the code for them with 85122CM but I guess its CX, nice to know for the future

I'll ask..but Im not confident with people's group buy tendencies. It'll be around $210 shipped (watching people run away. )
The 85122CM is the colormatch one for european market, these are CX for the Asian market and CM is 4900K, Im not sure if CX is the same or actually 5000K.
I tried finding technical data on these, havn't found them so I dont have the lumen output.
Also colorshifted bulbs will be severely dimmed, where these are brand new and almost as bright as 4200K
