About KIMLATAR 3157 LED Bulb Reverse Light Back Up Lights
Overall Feedback:
75% positive
74% praised for its exceptional brightness
The new lights are definitely brighter than my old LEDs.
I found a $30 LED bulb for the reverse light that is very bright and has no errors or hyper flash.
69% liked its natural white light, but 31% found it too yellow.
As a mechanic, I can say that the backup light bulbs are the brightest I have ever seen.
On rough roads, dirt got inside the lens because the rubber fit very loosely and fell out.
70% appreciated its long-lasting performance, though 30% experienced premature burnout.
I am disappointed with the product's durability. The bulb is not keyed to match any particular style of socket and the pigtail that attaches to the vehicle wiring makes no provision for keeping moisture or dirt out of that connection point. I cannot use the product as intended due to the possibility of condensation and dirt entering the fixture and the exposure of the wiring to the atmosphere, which can cause corrosion and damage to the wiring.
I have concerns about the durability of the bulbs. There is no snap or twist lock and the connector is small. I am not expecting much out of them and would not order them again if they give out.
I believe the manufacturer's claim of 50,000 hours is false.
76% found it easy to install, but 24% had difficulties with the process.
I faced difficulty finding the technical size specifications for the pigtail and learning if another item by this manufacturer would fit, which made it hard to install the product.
The installation on my Jeep Patriot was a bit tricky, resulting in a one star deduction.
74% appreciated its heat-resistant design, but 26% experienced overheating issues.
The light bulbs have large aluminum heatsinks on the back.
After less than a month of use, the bulbs stopped working, indicating poor heat resistance.
I believe the claim of 50,000 hours is false.
67%like it's size and it fits perfectly, but 33% found it very small
The bulb replacement fits in a tail light housing or similar. The wire connects to the factory socket with a pigtail wire.
I ordered the product specifically for my car, but it did not fit.
The previous bulbs had a snug rubber collar, but these new ones have to be twisted and stuffed in deep. I'm not sure if they'll stay in place since there's no snap or twist lock. I wouldn't order them again if they give out.
The bulb doesn't fit tight enough to keep moisture or dirt from entering the fixture.
