You state that HID kits are only 1500lm, when in fact HID kits are usually 3000Lm+.
If your LED's are only 1500lm, there's not much difference from better premium halogen bulbs. Even standard Sylvania H11 55w, are rated at 1200 lumens +/-15%.
I'm not trying to bash, but I do want to make sure you are advertising correct information to us.

Totally understand where you're coming from, and it's easy to take numbers off of the internet from different manufacturers and claim one is brighter than another
Here's how we came up with our numbers, back at the factory where these are produced, a halogen bulb, 22w LED headlight bulb, and 35w 5000K AC digital HID kit were placed and tested in a reflector housing headlight assembly. The same light meter was capturing the halogen bulb at approximately ~650 lumens, 22w LED headlight bulb at ~1200 lumens, and the 35w HID kit at ~1500 lumens.
If Sylvania was measuring their H11 55w bulb at 1200 lumens and HID xenon at 3000 lumens, there is no doubt that their method of measuring differed from ours, and if we used their method, maybe our bulbs are rated even higher.
Numbers are just numbers, and the results can vary due to different environments and light meters, but one thing is very clear, these are much brighter than factory halogen bulbs, but not quite as bright as 35w 5000K HID xenon bulbs. I am not trying to pass these off as the brightest and baddest bulbs on the market, it's simply an alternative to HID xenon and we're one of the first companies to introduce this technology to the public.
Hope that clears things up.
