Kenneth,

Are the similar in form factor to the ones I posted on my blog? The link to the source is also on the blog post.

Are they passively cooled or do they have a fan?

And do they interfere with weak radio signals or communication radio?

Btw, The bulbs come with adapters to fit H4, H7, H11, 9005, 9006.
