GS1000S: The Road to 80,000 Candela

Well, now that everyone’s gone,
let me just do a quick check!
 

 
12V 85/80W
 

 
From experience, this is a coated bulb with poor light output and visibility.
Since it’s the current high-watt type, I’m hopeful. ★
 

 
Wow! 49,000 candela—the same! So this is the limit of halogen…
Huh?? …
It’s on the 40,000 range side… which means
…24,000 cd.
So the result confirms that coated bulbs just don’t work…
One measurement and goodbye.
Result:
The standard clear 60/55W bulb produced the best light output.
If you want light output with halogen: clear bulb.
If you want blue color temperature: HID.
Even with HID, lowering the Kelvin rating should give decent light output,
but I’ve never measured an HID over 50,000 yen, so I can’t say for sure.
80,000 cd is impossible.
The end.
