How do these compare to Sylvania zXe and GE Nighthawk Xenon?

I am not familiar with other two, it is brighter and whiter than halogens. But if you are looking for extreme white look you have to get HID system" any bulb labeled" extreme white" I th think its misleading. But I am satified with product still working and much better than OEM bulbs

I've personally tried just about everything and I end up going back to PIAA. In terms of the quality and bulb life, I believe there's no comparison. Sylvania and GE have short life cycles. In terms of brightness, I find that PIAA is best. They're more functional than just looks. Depending on whether you have projector or multi reflector type, there is very little blue hue unlike others that omit way too much blue. I use PIAA HID, halogen and fogs on all my cars and very satisfied.

I can't say about any comparison. I am a true fan of any of the PIAA lighting products. I feel that they have no comparable rivals.

In my opinion I think they are better then sylvania zxe not sure about GE.The piaa is def. the way to go nice bright white light .

One is argon gas and the other is neon. There is no difference in performance or effectivness

I wouldn't know what the bi-xenon light would look like but the bi-xenon low is pretty much the same as the halogen high. The low is just so crystal clear and when you turn in the high it just looks like a dirty light. I originally just had the bi-xenon light and no high what so ever, I just wanted the option to have a high beam so I can flash people that have there high beams on. With this kit I got now I hardly ever use the high beam.

I had the phenom x2 965 and I felt a sensitive diference, has been more than enough for most the duties I use. But if you have compatibility for the next socket in your board and can afford it, buy the latest one, eventough I hadn´t need something more recent or bigger than the thuban.

They are brighter than the stock lights. They do not light up like xenon lights do though

No idea. The sylvania web site has a chart. Do not use the chart to determine how bright they are, they misled me. The supposedly brighter bulbs were the exact same part number as original equipment. The brighter the bulb, the less life it has = burns out sooner. The real bright bulbs require inserting some kind of additional electrical device to work.

Ones I was shipped are Sylvania/OSRAM Xenarc 66144 which are rated at 4150k by the manufacturer.http://www.osram.com/osram_com/products/lamps/automotive-lamps/automotive-cars/gas-discharge-headlight-lamps-for-cars/xenarc-original/index.jsp?productId=ZMP_83508

These are bi-xenon projectors. they have a flap that controls how much light is let out from the bulb aka high beam and low beam. The bulb never changes output

The color is a little more white vs typical yellow from standard halogen but not white-white like xenon HID gas arc bulbs. It is worth it to buy xenons with their ballasts for safest night driving

I have an 2005 330xi the are bi-xenon they perform awesome I waited almost a year to write a review. They are cheaper than a marker light I bought several if you have HID and it's a DS2 pull your bulb they will work its worth it you'll be happy as opposed to a 100.00 bulb

No they are not the xenon lamps. My old ones were but work just fine. No modification just plugs right in

The stock bulb will work with these head lights , the bulbs that they come with are more clear and crisper light. These are a step above stock. Any Xenon bulb or halogen bulb will work, Xenon light is more clear and less yellow .

I read a review that said the same thing. I've had mine in for 6 months and no problems. They seem just as snug as the OEM ones I pulled out. IMHO the best out there unless you want fancy LED lighting. Also, I don't know why they say Xenon, mine came with ordinary type bulbs, I noticed they were considerably brighter but not sure if that is just because they are new vs the old "cloudy" ones.

Honestly, I don't know the difference between xenon and halogen. It looks like halogen bulb though, also gets hot very quickly which exactly halogen does. With heat issue, my electrician told me to avoid halogen and I thought I did, but obviously they get hot and heat up bottom of upper cabinets. I don't know if I'm answering what you wanted to know, hope it helps!

Halogens will always run very hot. Xenon bulbs are a higher quality bulb and will actually last longer and even can be brighter due to the different gasses in the bulb. I don't now if they will overheat or not in your situation, but they are probably one of the best options for halogen bulbs. I will not buy halogen bulbs unless they are xenon, if that makes any difference.
