It's not so much time as miles. How many miles do you guesstimate on each of those installs?I have 2 cyclops bulbs on my Tenere, one on my wifes FZ07 and 2 on my daughters CBR500RR, they are all 3+ years old and not had a single one fail, a bit pricey but for me they have been very reliable!! I bought cheaper LED bulbs for my dirtbikes and they are all still working so I cant say Cyclops is better than the cheaper LED bulbs, but they certainly aren't worse!! My tenere also has the covers on the back of the headlights, but my wife's and daughters bikes have the bulbs open to the outside world (more air).

The tenere Bulbs have 14K miles on them, the FZ07 bulb has 8K miles and the CBR500 bulbs have 5K miles, so not very high mileage but they all still work great.It's not so much time as miles. How many miles do you guesstimate on each of those installs?
The tenere Bulbs have !4K miles on them, the FZ07 bulb has 8K miles and the CBR500 bulbs have 5K miles, so not very high mileage but they all still work great.

Which version of the Novsight do you have? Some have no inline ballast. I'm running a pair of A385-N7-H7 versions.Replacing them with Novsight, just the ballast is longer than the Cyclops, and I haven't been able to get them in the space between the lens and housing.
So what is the purpose of the ballast anyway? Some bulbs have them some don't yet seem to share similar specifications. I noticed the replacement set I installed (can't recall the name) didn't have them. One of them didn't work until I reversed the plug. Thinking I got lucky with the Cyclops or maybe the ballast lets you plug them in either way? If that's all it does it's not worth the hassle of fitting it somewhere.Which version of the Novsight do you have? Some have no inline ballast. I'm running a pair of A385-N7-H7 versions.
Currently not home, I will need to look, but the ballast is about 1/3 longer then the Cyclops, so think I just ordered the wrong size.Which version of the Novsight do you have? Some have no inline ballast. I'm running a pair of A385-N7-H7 versions.
