Single-Beam Design
The L1-9005/6 is a single-beam bulb. The exact function—high beam, low beam, fog light or another application—depends on how the factory 9005/9006 bulb is used in your vehicle.
L1 Series Technology
10,000 Lumens Per Pair
The L1-9005/6 produces 10,000 lumens per pair, giving customers a substantial upgrade from traditional halogen lighting while maintaining a properly focused light point. Lucas Lighting describes the L1 Series as providing three times or more the light output of original halogen bulbs while retaining similar low-beam cutoff characteristics.
Large, Correct Focus Point
Rather than simply maximizing raw output, the L1 Series is engineered around a large and properly focused light point. This helps maintain a useful beam pattern when installed in compatible reflector or projector housings.
Reflector & Projector Compatible
L1 Series bulbs are designed for use in both standard reflector and projector-style housings, providing broad application compatibility.
Overbuilt LED Chipset
Lucas Lighting uses a high-quality, overbuilt chipset in the L1 Series to provide dependable performance and approximately 10,000 hours of normal-use lifespan.
6V DRL Support
The 9005/6 version supports compatible 6-volt daytime running light circuits using non-PWM systems. When operating at 6 volts, Lucas specifies approximately 20% of full output.
Why Choose the Lucas Lighting L1-9005/6?
The L1-9005/6 is designed for customers who want a quality Lucas Lighting LED upgrade without stepping up to the higher-priced L2 Series.
Compared with basic aftermarket LED bulbs, the L1 combines 10,000 lumens per pair, a focused light point, reflector/projector compatibility, an overbuilt chipset, IP65-or-better protection and approximately 10,000 hours of normal-use life.
For customers who want additional CANBUS functionality and a more compact bulb design with an external controller, the L2-9005/6 is the next step up in the Lucas Lighting lineup.
