Really depends on the quality of the focusing optic (Glass) used in said projector. This matters almost more than the lighting element itself.

There are a ton of cheaper projector options with not so great optics. Even some OEM headlight projector optics are not of the best quality.

Here's a wall test between the ORACLE Oculus Bi-LED Projector and the OEM JL LED headlight for reference.

Interesting...
Thank you.

The projector lamps I had were in an Acura; one would assume they used descent optics...
While they were good, they weren't better enough than standard reflector fixtures to warrant the expense (I'm talking a properly-designed LED replacement lamp in the OEM headlight vs. a full replacement projector fixture.)
