While the sun doesn\u2019t set until 8pm, it\u2019s still a safety critical component to replace, and therefore, provides factors and technicians with an excellent upselling opportunity all year round.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Xenon range<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">OSRAM upgrade xenon bulbs generate up to 220% more brightness when compared to the minimum legal standard. Xenon bulbs also use less energy and have a longer life span than halogen bulbs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Products that are prominent in this portfolio include the Xenarc\u00ae Night Breaker\u00ae Laser (Next Gen), which is OSRAM\u2019s brightest xenon upgrade bulb. It has a 250-metre-long beam and up to 20% whiter light, allowing drivers to see further and, therefore, respond to the conditions on the road earlier.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If a driver is looking for more whiter light, OSRAM offers the Xenarc\u00ae Cool Blue\u00ae Intense (Next Gen), which also offers up to 150% more brightness than the minimum legal standard.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, if a driver is focused on a reliable bulb that will last a long time, OSRAM\u2019s Xenarc\u00ae Ultra Life has a 10-year guarantee, which is up to four times longer than a standard bulb, providing the driver extra reassurance and saving them costs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finally, OSRAM has the Xenarc\u00ae Original, which has a four-year guarantee and is original equipment manufacturer (OEM) quality. These bulbs fit a variety of vehicles and are of premium quality and manufactured in Germany.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.totalkitcar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/64193NB200_NIGHT-BREAKER-200_DUO-Prod.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-27222\" src=\"https:\/\/www.totalkitcar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/64193NB200_NIGHT-BREAKER-200_DUO-Prod-300x168.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"168\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Halogen range<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Due to their impressive beam range, performance and longevity OSRAM\u2019s halogen bulb offering has always been incredibly popular amongst drivers, technicians and retailers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Similar to its xenon counterpart, OSRAM\u2019s Night Breaker\u00ae 200 is its brightest halogen bulb, with up to 200% more brightness and up to 150-metre-long beam. This product is one of the bestselling bulbs in OSRAM\u2019s upgrade portfolio and is widely regarded in the industry, especially as it was recently recognised in\u00a0<em>Auto Express<\/em>\u2019s 2023 Product Awards.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Night Breaker\u00ae Laser is the second most powerful halogen lamp with up to 150% more brightness and has more light performance due to innovative laser ablation technology.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If a driver is looking for a bulb that will have excellent performance and has longevity, technicians should recommend OSRAM\u2019s Night Breaker\u00ae Silver, which has an excellent performance-lifetime ratio, up to 130 metres long beam and up to 100% more brightness.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For a more modern and stylish look for halogens, OSRAM\u2019s Cool Blue\u00ae Intense (Next Gen) is perfect, with extra white light for an LED look and is ideal for use in clear-glass headlights with its modern design with a silver cap.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For drivers that are looking for a reliable headlight and aren\u2019t worried about anything more \u2018flashy\u2019, OSRAM\u2019s Ultra Life is the ideal solution, with a four-year guarantee and up to a 100,000km (62,000 miles) service life.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finally, in the halogen range, is the Original Line 12V, which is an OEM quality product that is tried and trusted by vehicle manufacturers across Europe and therefore covers a wide array of applications for both headlight and auxiliary applications.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.totalkitcar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/64193DWBRT_LEDriving_HL_BRIGHT_H4_H19_Pack-and-Prod.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-27223\" src=\"https:\/\/www.totalkitcar.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/64193DWBRT_LEDriving_HL_BRIGHT_H4_H19_Pack-and-Prod-300x197.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"197\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">LED range<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The LEDriving retrofit portfolio includes LED bulbs for high and low beam, fog, signalling and interior lighting applications.\u00a0\u00a0These retrofit LEDs provide superior brightness and colour temperatures of up to 6,500 kelvin.
