I've had mine in the bike for about 3 years. Others for longer..
I think that the beam is not so much brighter as whiter. The whiter light makes things show up better. (more contrast)Oh, and do they put out as much (or more) light than a normal H4 9003?
thanks,
Yes.
No changes were necessary with the Auxito bulbs, the rubber cover went right back on.Those using Beamtech or other aftermarket LEDs. What did you do with the rubber light cover on the rear of the headlight? I tried trimming mine but haven't gotten it to fit well enough to stay in place.
Thanks!
Ted,
I just put in one of those BeamTech. They have a big heatsink on the back. The rubber boot would NOT fit over the heatsink. Any issue with leaving the rubber boot off? the BeamTech units look like they are water sealed.

Yep, dummy me. 1/4 turn just like you said.
Still looks, though, like i'm going to have to trim the rubber boot a little. Did you have to do that Ted?
thanks,

Sorry Guy, yes i was getting things mixed up.
my headlight boot has 3 holes for the 3 prongs to go through. Did you just push the beamtech led one of the holes?
thanks,

Thanks Guy, the photos and discussion are invaluable help.
since you've had the beamtechs in for a few years, how do you like them? I have put LEDs in all other sockets save the headlight. Now it will have LEDs. I like the lower current draw, and brighter light output. I'm expecting that to carry over to the headlight as well.
thanks!

from the website it appears to me that the AUXITO does use a fan:
"Made of aluminum alloy shell and utilizing IP65 waterproof technology, built-in powerful fan cools down the heat efficiently, ensures more than 30,000hrs service time and keep the headlights always perform at the optimum brightness "
maybe false advertising?

Just got back to this discussion.
I see that you worked out the Beamtech mount on a C-10.
For clarity; I installed mine on my C-14, and want to add one to my C-10.
So, I didn't know the answer to your question.
You sed; The Auxito would be a plug and play on the C10. With the beamtech I had to trim the boot just a little. and I ziptied the pigtail up out of the way with the beamtech where as TJ pointed out the Auxito would be plug and play totally.
I disagree with installing the Auxito on a C-10 as plug and play.
ie; The base of the Auxito is a heat sink and needs to be exposed to the air to dissipate the heat.
So, I wouldn't put the rubber boot at the 3 pins. I would trim the hole bigger and slide the boot down as far as possible.
Thinking; I think I would prefer the Beamtech over the Auxito as the heat sink has a lot more surface area.
Plus, the Auxito idea of moving air inside of the housing seems wrong.
My thought is to get that heat outside of the headlight housing.
Guy, Thoughts on that??
By the way; My apologies to Guy for anyone that may have confused the 2 of us.
{He's a lot better looking than me}.
Ride safe, Ted
This is going to sound smart a$$ but it is not meant to be. Call myself following this chain of posts but I seem to have missed something."Harbor Freight has a remote switch kit for Christmas tree lights.
I bought some years ago and they work great.
Ride safe, Ted"
My concern with the Auxito is (if used as plug and play) the rubber headlight boot would completely cover the base of light.
ie; Heat would be trapped inside the boot.
Guy; Harbor Freight has a wireless remote switch kit that can be used for Christmas tree lights.
I bought one years ago, and it works great.

I just came across the Auxito Fanless that Guy ordered. (I think)
(Guy, I kinda though you were joking about a Fanless because of your noise comment).
Looking at the Auxito Fanless, it's pretty obvious that it's built by the same manufacturer as the Beamtech.
I do like the "Same light position" claim as it should keep the beam in the same position as the OEM Halogen Light.
So, I'm anxious to see Guys report on how it works out in his C-10/other.
Ride safe, Ted
Update; (For my Frugal COG Buddies) I just found the Fanless on Ebay for $6 less..
