Morimoto H3 2Stroke 4.0 Led Bulb (Each)
$120.00

Introducing the H3 2Stroke 4.0 LED Bulb

Say hello to a new era in driving with the H3 2Stroke 4.0 LED Bulb! After a year of dedicated innovation, these bulbs are here to transform your nighttime journeys. With cutting-edge lighting technology, the 2Stroke 4.0 ensures clarity and safety on the road like never before. Its exceptional beam quality mimics the original optics pattern while minimizing glare for oncoming drivers. Thanks to a sleek 1.45mm emission surface and advanced PCB technology, you can count on optimal performance every time you hit the road.

Benchmark Performance

While others in the industry have lagged behind, Morimoto has been busy crafting the successor to the impressive 2Stroke 3.0 LED bulbs. The 4.0 model brings the original beam pattern back to life, doing more with less. You?ll get more light on the road while ensuring less glare for those coming towards you. Although LED bulbs aren't DOT approved for headlights in the U.S., our friends overseas and fog light users can take full advantage of the best plug-and-play LED bulb available today?the 2Stroke 4.0, featuring patented technology by Morimoto.

Superior Beam Quality

The heart of the 2Stroke 4.0 is its advanced Aluminum Nitride Ceramic circuit board, which produces the most precise beam pattern possible with a remarkably small 1.45mm surface-emission interval. For comparison, a tungsten filament in a halogen bulb measures 1.4mm, while the previous LED record was 2.0mm with the 2Stroke 3.0! By using an industry-first ceramic PCB, we?ve eliminated the need for a dielectric layer and a separate thermal element. This, combined with Osram Oslon HJL531.TE LED chips, results in unmatched performance for all reflector and projector-based headlights designed for halogen bulbs.

Optimized Focal Length

Each bulb in the 2Stroke 4.0 lineup has been meticulously optimized for its specific application. We?ve calculated the critical reference distance based on the bulb base geometry and the footprint of the Osram HJL531 emitter. Special tools have been designed to ensure each bulb's accuracy as it rolls off the production line. Unlike most LED bulbs, which use a one-size-fits-all approach, the 2Stroke series guarantees optimal focus in every situation.

360 Degrees of Rotation

With so many different headlight and fog light designs out there, we've made sure that all bulbs in the 2Stroke 4.0 range are fully adjustable. You can easily position the LED chips to sit perfectly at the 3 and 9-o?clock positions. Our previous generation had issues with slipping gears, but our new system is designed to prevent that. Setting up your bulbs has never been simpler!

Thermal Management

The 2Stroke 4.0 features an upgraded version of the patented cooling system we introduced with the 3.0 bulbs. This innovative cooling system utilizes a 12,000-rpm dual-layer fan to draw in cool air and expel warm air back into the housing. Cold air enters past the PCB sidewall for heat exchange and is blown out the opposite side of the bulb. This design not only cools the bulb but also raises the ambient temperature inside the housing, helping to prevent snow and ice buildup on the lens during winter months. With even greater static pressure than before, the cooling system extends the bulb's lifespan while providing benefits in bad weather that you won't find anywhere else.

Unique Drive Logic

The LED drivers are smartly programmed to start at a gentle 18W, ramping up to a stable 22.5W over the first 15 minutes. Unlike other aftermarket bulbs that lose intensity as they heat up, the 2Stroke 4.0 maintains impressive performance from the moment you leave your driveway until you park your car.

Lifetime Warranty

Crafted with the latest OE-grade materials, electronics, and LEDs, the Morimoto 2Stroke 4.0 bulbs are built to last. Their conservative LED drive rates and efficient thermal management keep operating temperatures low, ensuring durability. That?s why we back them with an industry-leading lifetime warranty.

Features:

  • Designed & Engineered by Morimoto in California, packed with innovative features.
  • Perfect Focus: The ceramic PCB and Osram HJL LEDs illuminate the road effectively, with zero glare for oncoming traffic.
  • Heat Exchanger: Keeps the bulb cool while warming the ambient temperature inside the housing, reducing snow/ice buildup on the lens.
  • Lifetime Warranty: Built with OE-grade materials for lasting performance, backed by a lifetime warranty.

Technical Specifications:

  • Luminous Flux: 2,600lm
  • Power: 18-22.5W
