everytime i see a customer lookin through apc products and somehow asks me which lights are better, i always tell them the cool blue becuase its nice and illegal blue..lol

but the silverstars are actually nice and alot more cleaner beams than stock or cool blues.

edit, you can see the difference of the color temp on the back of the package.

yeah I ran silverstars too, alot beter than stock,
but i'd like something just a LIL bluer,

but nothing like ur normal coolblue/hyperwhite bulb..

maybe if stock is a 1 on the blue scale
and silverstar is a 4, hyperwhite is a 10

i'd like a 6

if that made sense?
which is rpobly didnt..

I'm using the new Nighthawk bulbs from phylips and am impressed how much longer they lasted then the Silverstars. Many of my friends have been going through the silverstars bulbs every 6 months.

SO MUCH CLEANER.. COOL BLUE IS LAME AND UGLY!!!!

Seriously... The Silvanias are equvilant to I think 4000k... Which is a super clean light color I see no blue but all my friends do, so it might be the look you want...

Silverstars are brighter and whiter than the cool blues. I recommend the Silverstars.
