And, you know what? CustomAngelEyes deserves it. Umnitza and JetBlack were right. If either Umnitza or Dinan had made the same claims as CustomAngelEyes, they would've been roasted, flamed, charbroiled and barbecued on the forums. I know for a fact that CustomAngelEyes wanted to keep it a secret after being told about the AIB v1 and v2 comparison.

I think he posted the wrong ones here. As far as I can tell the #2 car and 4 car look similar. They both give off a thicker ring of light on the halo's. #4 may appear the brightest of the 4.

By #2 and #4 you mean the two Sapphire Black e60s, right? #2 (freed0m) has AIB v1 and #4 (EuroCarFan) has AIB v2. In person, some thought AIB v1 looked brighter than v2! Sandwich between the two black beauties is Predator ICE (ro11dice). Clearly, AIBs were brighter here. So, let's go for round 2. Line 'em up! In this corner we have AIB v3 and the other corner ICE v2.

yeah yeah yeah, here comes Umnitza with his usual "caveats"....

Don't forget one simple thing here, please.

If I were to show you an 8K ring versus a 6K ring.


or how about now?


Which would you say is brighter? Which one would you say is really 6K and which would you say is really 8K?

To the eye and camera, 8K actually does appear brighter, in reality (again, strictly physics speaking, lower K = brighter).

So maybe you have another "bitch fest" to go into about accuracy of claims of "K" ratings here. I know ours are measured to within 100K on EVERY unit. There is less than 100K variance from our 1st production unit to our 1000th.

Just something to mull over

Yea #1-4 from left to right.

Like I said #2 and 4 in the pics look similar. MAybe it depends on how much other electrical gadgets are using up your battery as well Anyways AIb's look intense , and I'm sceptical if v3's will be noticeabley brighter since the v1 and v2 look bright as is. If it aint broke dont fix it. Unless itll add another 80 hp of course.
