Leading lighting specialist OSRAM is encouraging workshops and factors to focus on bulb sales this winter. The company reminds professionals that bulbs are more likely to fail in colder temperatures due to the contraction of the tungsten filament in halogen bulbs.
OSRAM advises that, as the nights get darker, businesses should proactively inform customers about the risk of bulb failure. While drivers will notice if their lights are poor, workshops should recommend that bulbs are checked and replaced before they fail.
The company offers a wide range of bulbs, including a varied Xenon portfolio. The XENARC NIGHT BREAKER 220 is OSRAM’s brightest xenon upgrade bulb, providing up to 220% more brightness and a 250-metre-long beam. The XENARC COOL BLUE INTENSE offers a whiter light with up to 150% more brightness, while the XENARC ULTRA LIFE provides longevity with a 10-year guarantee. The XENARC ORIGINAL range is OEM quality and comes with a four-year guarantee.
OSRAM also has a popular Halogen range. The NIGHT BREAKER® 220 is the brightest street-legal halogen bulb, with up to 220% more brightness. The NIGHT BREAKER® Laser offers up to 150% more brightness. For a balance of performance and longevity, the NIGHT BREAKER SILVER has up to 100% more brightness. For a modern look, the COOL BLUE INTENSE provides extra white light, while the ULTRA LIFE is a reliable option with a four-year guarantee. The ORIGINAL 12V range is an OEM quality product trusted by vehicle manufacturers.
OSRAM also recommends that technicians check bulbs on every vehicle that enters the workshop and always replace them in pairs
