With its Ledriving Fog combined daytime running light/fog lamp, Osram is introducing its first fully functioning replacement LED headlamp. It replaces conventional halogen fog lamps in many car models with state-of-the-art LED technology. The number one in the automotive light sector is also extending its retrofit spectrum to include an inexpensive daytime running light with a four-pixel LED as well as colored retrofit lamps for vehicle interiors.

The Ledriving Fog combined daytime running light/fog lamp with LED fiber optics is the first replacement headlamp from Osram for cars and trucks. With its rounded design and 90 millimeter diameter. it can fully replace many conventional fog lamps with halogen technology without modifications to the car.

This new LED product not only upgrades the technical capability of the car, it also provides drivers with an additional feature since Ledriving Fog is also a daytime running light. LEDs in OEM quality are used for both functions. Thanks to a wider LED beam angle, the fog light enables significantly better visibility even in poor weather conditions, and the brand product complies completely with ECE (Economic Commission for Europe) guidelines for both functions. As well as design and functionality, there is also an economic advantage: Ledriving Fog consumes up to 70% less electrical energy than conventional fog lights.

LEDs are also popular for accent lighting in vehicle interiors. The retrofits from Osram fit into conventional incandescent lamp bases of types W5W, C5W and T4W. The 12V product spectrum – available until now in cool white and warm white – has been expanded by the light manufacturer with two colored W5W variants, blue and yellow LED lamps, and these create striking accents for boot, instrument and glove compartment lighting. Retrofits of types W5W and T4W in cool white or warm white are now also available for buses and trucks. The LED retrofit lamps feature homogeneous light, and emit this with a high level of energy efficiency, consuming up to 80% less power than conventional lamps.
