30W bulbs labelled as 60W (total?). Now corrected!
The product has one of the best packaging I have seen yet and looks like a high quality product. The bulbs fit nice and snug into the headlight of my Toyota 2016 Highlander. However, the brightness, although significantly brighter than the old halogen bulb I replaced, is not as bright as other 60W bulbs I have bought. I realise that's because it is NOT a 60W bulb! They deliberately leave the bulb spec vague because they write 60W making you think it is 60W each. That 60W means 30W per side, and the 6 LED's per side of the bulb made me think it was a good buy at $20 cheaper than the other 60W bulbs. This is deceptive description and $49.99 for a pair of 40W or 30W LED bulbs is ridiculous. I will return these bulbs and buy a true pair of 60W (described as 120W total) for the extra $20.Update : To make up for my install costs and my dissatisfaction with the 30W bulbs, the manufacturer has convinced me to try their 60W each (Listed as 120W for 2 bulbs) LED bulbs. These have met my expectations. As usual, the packaging is the best I have seen so far (outfitted 7 cars with different brands of LED headlights as Christmas gifts to hugely appreciative family members). Their bulbs come with adjustable ring and allen spanner to adjust the bulb position in case that is needed, and also comes with 4 electrical straps for securing the small ballasts and wires. Many of the other brands do not provide these.Fahren have improved their description to make it clear that the power of each bulb is 60W and the illustrated instructions are professionally printed in excellent english!The bulbs are (comparable to HID's) - much brighter than the 30W and are as good, if not better than the other brands I have used and have an accurate beam pattern so covers a wider area with no dazzle to other drivers. I recommend that anyone upgrading from standard halogen to LED use 60W LED bulbs (120W total for 2). Using anything of lower power (that is a bit cheaper) runs the risk of causing a bulb-out warning on your dashboard because your OEM halogens are 55W each. Lower powered bulbs use less current, and may trigger the bulb-out warning, apart from being not much brighter than the bulbs you are changing. And remember, if your high beams are the daytime running headlights, then you should only upgrade the low beams to LED's.

Simply Excellent
With how expensive some LED bulbs can get I was tempering my expectations but these really impressed me. These have so far exceeded my expectation in every respect and after using these I don't see the point in more expensive bulbs.The bulbs themselves are very well made. The finish on the housings is excellent, the fan appears to be of good quality as well as the LED's themselves. I really like the external driver on these, it means the electronics stay cooler as opposed to bulbs with built-in drivers. The driver is also well made with a metal housing and the connectors are of good quality. My only complaint is that the connector can be inserted either way but I'm not sure if that is a quirk with all bulbs or not. So, if you plug them in and they don't work, flip the connector around.I really like the low profile heatsink on these, I installed them on a 2020 F150 which is known for not having much space for tall heat sinks in low beam. These fit perfectly with more than enough room to spare with the factory dust caps. The drivers fit perfectly into the headlight housing and there is even a nice flat spot in there to stock them to using the two nice sticky mounting pads provided with the headlight thus eliminating any rattle. These worked perfectly with our vehicle and didn't produce any errors or flashing.The beam pattern that these produce is very close to the factory bulbs. They do shine a couple of inches higher than the halogen bulbs did so the headlight had to be adjusted down slightly. However, this is the case with pretty much every LED bulb and you should always mark your factory beam height and adjust your headlights when installing new bulbs. Don't be that person blinding everyone on the road because your headlights are aimed too high.The color temperature is good and the brightness is perfect. They are much brighter than the halogens without being so bright that you are a hazard on the road like some LED lights out there.Overall, these are excellent, if there is a better bulb at this price point I certainly haven't seen it.

Flickers a lot, especially when cold
I bought these for my 2011 Dodge Grand Caravan (H11 bulbs) and was happy with them at first. They are not as bright as other LED headlights that I have tried, but what is worse it that they have developed a flicker during the winter. It seems to get worse in colder weather, although it is noticeable even at temperatures slightly above freezing. Installation was easy enough and they are brighter than stock lights, but my other car has different LED headlights that work much, much better.

Very impressive
Very impressed with these new LED lights from FAHREN I bought 3 sets for my Tacoma they works great I live out in the country so everyone knows about the deer and critters that like to walk the roads at night now with these new lights you can spot them way far ahead low beam high beam and fogs got replaced with these leds will definitely buy for my other vehicles had a very small issue with a set screw on one of the lights but customer service was very prompt and courteous and resolved the issue right away 5 star all the way 🎖🎖🎖🎖🎖

Full review - great product!
The build is almost all aluminum and metals, the heat sink is cooled via a plastic fan, the LED positioning Is almost identical to the original H11 halogen bulbs (important for correct beam pattern), but slightly thicker distance between the two sides... The cord is thick and sturdy, and connects to a small metal external driver. The machining quality is above average but nothing impressive. I installed these on my first gen Acura TSX as the fog lights and was impressed with the result! The beam pattern was almost identical to my halogens, but noticeably brighter and with a farther reach. The colour is advertised at 6.5k with a slight blue hint. Seems to operate cooler than my halogens and fan is quiet. I cannot speak on longevity, but overall great product!!!Pictures show low beam vs. Low beam + fogs comparison, and driving with fogs on
