Anyone tried this lamp instead of Silverstar?

I found this at Pepboys, and it is $5 cheaper than the Silverstar. They claim it is based on Xenon technology, but I am just wondering if anyone has used it. I am not worried about the $5, but I just wonder if it a better, brighter light.

some of the other lights get very hot and can damage your wiring they draw too much current

Spend the money on the SilverStar. Ive never even heard of that brand in the pic you posted, and would be hesitant to buy something I dont trust. Phillips, or some no-name Chinese bulb, which would you put your trust in over 5 bucks?

From my experience, you are going to have a hard time finding a better bulb that the SilverStar until you step up to an HID setup, especially one that is cheaper that the SilverStar. Spend the 20 bucks on a quality bulb, youll thank yourself later.
