yeah...we are waiting for Corey to look at them. Since he sells them and hasn't seen them in person on a car, he asked that he get a "sneak preview" of what the Halo Super Yellow looked like before we post on it. Once he has seen them, the "big comparison thread" will be up.

Please know, though, that the test results are not biased towards the Halos, Luminics, or HIDTech capsules in any way....(I'm dead serious about that).

unless someone decides to fabricating the capsules into the fogs, some of us are going to be stuck with bulbs. I am not one for opening my fogs and drilling into them. I do not have the funds to just drop on another fog because i F up the one i'm working on. Im sure i'm not the only one who feels this way.

people will always have different tastes...when it comes to cars, I believe its what you put in, is what you will get out

Take these yellow fogs for example...If you want the absolute brightest most yellow looking fogs that will help with poor visibility conditions...of course the yellow capsules will prove great....and Irish (and a few others) have the pictures to prove it....it will take more effort as you need to bake the fogs and drill them...but hey, you get what you put in...right

Over baked for 10-15 like a frozen pizza. Get a cookie sheet, throw a damp towel on the sheet, and let them bake for 10-15 minutes at 350 degrees.

For what's it worth, Redlinemax has the Halo Super Yellow H3s in stock now, and from the pics, you can see that they're just as yellow as the Luminics. The Halos also have a lifetime warranty.

Those of ya out there still deliberating should give Corey a call to see what he can do for you.

no bulb can ever match the capsules. i dont understand, cant they just make the bulb more yellower? like the color of the capsules? i really like the capsule look but dont wanna bake my fogs, since one of them has a crack wich i repaired, but might be cracked again from the heat.

no. I talked to him and he called his shipping warehouse. The man at the warehouse said they were having shipping delays for all of their items, not just lightbulbs. He said that the USPS is still catching up on the holiday rush and also aren't using their planes on the weekends. I'm going to give him a few more days and get a refund. I'm sick of waiting.

im strarting to think that his guy just keeps BSing us as much as he can, too many twists and turns in the whole story. it shouldnt take over a month to recieve an item from a company if its legit. never doing business with them again. im gonna wait till friday and then im askin for a refund. this is simply ridiculous!!!!

You guys when will you ever learn that if a deal is "too good to be true" it's probably not worth the hassle that it will involve.

Just order the Halo Super Yellow H3's from RedlineMax. They are THE SAME COLOR as the Luminics, they have a LIFETIME WARRANTY, and you know RedlineMax stands behind the products they sell and won't screw you. RedlineMax is the sponsor of the .org and Corey (its owner) is a moderator and long-time member.

I don't know why you guys are willing to go through all of this B.S. just to save a couple bucks....

Call Corey and get the Halos.

Do it now.

Or.....stop being "scurred" and do the capsules.


for those who didn't see the other thread, you can see that the Halos are JUST AS YELLOW as the Luminics:

irish, I hope that you are not referring to my "GB". JUST TO CLARIFY, Luminics the company itself is the one that is out of stock. I ordered 20 sets before they were sold out and have shipped every order I've received thus far. I have about 8 sets left if any people are interested.

I'm so sorry to all the members who didn't receive their bulbs...I am in no way a sales rep or behind any of the operations that luminics does....I'm just here to show the org a new alternative....thats it....The only reason why I have good luck with luminics is becuz my friend is friends with the owner....I will never have to worry about a blown bulb becuz I can always get a free replacement....

With that said, if you have just stepped into the world of yellow fogs....I'd suggest going with redline max bulbs, only becuz of all the late/canceled orders I've seen of luminics bulbs in this thread....and Irish has the proof that luminics and redlinemax bulbs look exactly the same...it's safe to make the move now gentlemen

Don't worry man, I in NO way see you as being responsible for anything. I actually found them on a mazda forum like 1 week before you bought and found interest through that. I like everyone else and giving him the benefit of the doubt and waiting till fri. Once fri comes and they aren't here I will be cancelling the order and going the capsules route. Now that I see you dont have to drill I dont have any problems doing it. I just dont want to spend $30 on bulbs that never came and $30 on capsules to make $60 for some fawking yellow fogs.

btw you guys waiting since 12/16 and whatnot, try 11/30.

Hey Irish, I've have an off topic question for you... Would you happen to know the HID temperature on the white maxima? The color of the light output on that car seems somewhat more blue in comparison to the others. If you could let me know I would appreciate it!

I was referring to the people who ordered from other places like a month ago and didn't get them yet - not you. I was under the impression that you had a limited amount on-hand and that once they were gone, they would be gone for good...wasn't trying to infer that you're scamming. It sounds like some of these guys are ordering from online shops and not getting the product...that's what I meant. Sorry if it came out wrong!!

Aloha Everyone,

Never posted on the .org before but been browsing this site for a long, long time. Been keeping up with this particular thread because it kinda influenced me to order the JDM yellows in the first place. Anyway, I ordered my bulbs directly from luminics back on 12/19, and like many of you, started worrying after having to wait awhile. Glad to report that I finally received them a couple days ago. And I'm all the way out here in the middle of the Pacific Ocean -- so hopefully this means you all be getting yours soon...and hopefully it will be worth the wait!!!

You have to call him during HIS business hours. He doens't open till 11am his time. Thats 2pm here on the east coast. I've always been able to get ahold of him. Try him on AIM as well. I've seen him on there everyday.

Kinda pisses me of that someone in HI can get them before I can when I'm only land travel.

Since I didnt have the original packaging they wont take them back for a replacement. Also, on their website they advertise a free LED keychain with your order, I never recieved it. When I contacted them they said they were out of stock of them. I emailed them back asking when they would get more in and to send me one and I never got a response.
I just wanted to complain about my experience with them, I think thier service is not good and the quality of their bulbs, poor. I have bought the $5 H3's from autozone and they lasted for 2 years (in my other car) and were much brighter as well.Luminics will not get any business from me again
just to let you guys know... like I said about customer service with Corey above...

I haven't got them. But i decided I am going to do the capsule mod instead. If these don't come in, I am getting a refund. If these do come in, does anyone want to buy a pair? I offer great customer service!
