6-Month Warranty AC/DC Compatible Socket to Socket
The Only One With AC/DC

Built to fit older bikes too.

Most LED retrofit bulbs are DC-only — which means owners of older AC-wired motorcycles can't fit them without an additional AC-to-DC converter. The BikeXNeo 14W solves this directly: native compatibility with both AC and DC supply. If you own a pre-2010 Royal Enfield Bullet UCE, an older commuter, or a vintage motorcycle, this is the LED that drops in without modification.

Old Bullet UCE Owners

Pre-2010 Royal Enfield Bullet UCE variants and older Standard / Electra trims ran AC-wired headlights. Most LED retrofits need a converter to fit. The BikeXNeo 14W runs natively — pull the halogen, plug in the LED, done.

Modern DC Bikes Too

Hero Splendor, Bajaj Pulsar, Honda Activa, TVS Apache, Royal Enfield Classic (2017+), KTM Duke — all run on DC supply and all work with the 14W. The AC/DC versatility is in addition to standard modern-bike compatibility, not instead of it.

The Accessible Upgrade

At ₹595, the 14W is the entry point into the BikeXNeo line — most accessible price, lowest electrical load, simplest install. The right choice for first-time LED upgraders, daily commuters on tight budgets, and anyone whose bike's electrical system is older or smaller than modern standard.

How we built it

14 watts of LED. Engineered for every Indian bike.

AC/DC compatibility — the engineering choice

Standard LED driver electronics are designed for DC supply (because most modern vehicles run DC headlight wiring). The BikeXNeo 14W uses a driver with a built-in full-wave rectifier and ripple smoothing — meaning it accepts AC supply and converts it cleanly to the DC voltage the LED needs, with no flicker, no buzz, no inrush spike. The same driver handles DC supply equally well. From the rider's point of view: it just works on either supply type. This single engineering choice opens the bulb up to a market segment (older AC-wired bikes) that competing LEDs in this price range can't serve.

6000K cool white, 4x halogen brightness

The 6000K colour temperature is cool / bright white — the colour band the human eye resolves contrast and edges fastest at. At 14W, the LED produces 1,400 lumens of usable light, which is approximately 4 times the visible-light output of a stock 35W halogen filament. LED efficiency means more light per watt: 100 LM/W for the BikeXNeo 14W vs 15-25 LM/W for halogen. On a dark road, the practical effect: lane markings appear earlier, road edges register at longer distances, and oncoming traffic is more visible. The colour is consistent bulb-to-bulb because the LED dies are binned (sorted by colour) rather than picked at random.

Dual high & low beam, full control

Dual-beam: switches between high and low beam exactly like the stock halogen, using the same pin on the HS1 / H4 socket. No additional wiring, no driver box external to the bulb, no rewiring of the headlight assembly. The high beam uses both filaments at full output; the low beam uses one filament with a cut-off shield. The LED chip mimics this filament arrangement exactly — meaning your bike's original beam pattern and cut-off line are preserved, no glare to oncoming traffic on low beam.

Energy saving — low battery load

At 14W, the BikeXNeo 14W draws less than half the power of a typical 35W halogen bulb. On older bikes with smaller alternators (most pre-2010 commuters), this is a meaningful upgrade — the electrical system has more headroom for other accessories, the battery runs cooler, and there's less load on the regulator-rectifier. On modern bikes, the energy savings translate to slightly better fuel economy at night (the alternator load on the engine is reduced). Either way, you get 4x the light at less than half the power.

BikeXNeo Bulb Ladder

Three bulbs. Pick your tier.

The BikeXNeo bulb range spans three tiers — entry, value, flagship. You're on the entry — the most accessible price, the only AC/DC-compatible option, and the right pick if your bike has older or smaller electrical systems. Step up to the Power Beam 36W or 48W Pro for higher absolute brightness and DC-only modern-bike applications.

Installation

5 minutes. No tools. No rewiring.

Open the headlight assembly per your bike's service manual (typically two screws and a clip), pull out the existing halogen bulb, plug the BikeXNeo 14W into the same socket, close the headlight back up. Most riders complete this in 5-10 minutes with no prior mechanic experience.

Critical for older bike owners: If your bike has an AC-wired headlight (most pre-2010 Bullet UCE variants, certain older commuter bikes), the BikeXNeo 14W runs natively — no AC-to-DC converter required. Just plug in and it works. The 36W and 48W Pro do not have AC compatibility; they're DC-only.

Check before ordering: Confirm your bike uses an HS1 or H4 socket (most do). If unsure, send a photo of your current headlight bulb to support@carxneo.com — we'll confirm fit before you order.

Frequently asked

Questions buyers ask.

What does "AC/DC compatible" mean and why does it matter?

Older Indian motorcycles — pre-2010 Royal Enfield Bullet UCE variants, certain older commuter bikes from Bajaj / Hero / TVS — wire their headlight directly to the alternator (AC supply) rather than through the battery (DC supply). 99% of LED retrofit bulbs are DC-only and won't work on these bikes without an AC-to-DC converter. The BikeXNeo 14W is the only bulb in our line designed to run on either AC or DC supply natively — you plug it in, it works, regardless of how the bike is wired. If you own an older Bullet or a vintage commuter, this is the LED that fits without adapter modifications.

How is this different from the Power Beam 36W and 48W Pro?

The 14W is the entry-tier of the BikeXNeo bulb ladder. The 36W is the value-tier (3,600 LM, IP67, ₹999), the 48W Pro is the flagship (4,800 LM, IP68, 1-year warranty, ₹1,499). The 14W trades absolute brightness for two things — accessibility (₹595 entry price) and AC/DC versatility (which neither 36W nor 48W Pro have). 1,400 lumens is still 4x brighter than a stock halogen — so it's a real upgrade, just not the highest output in the range. Pick the 14W if budget or older-bike-compatibility is the deciding factor.

Will this fit my motorcycle or scooter?

Yes if your bike uses HS1 or H4 sockets — covers most Indian two-wheelers including Hero Splendor / Passion, Bajaj Pulsar / Discover / CT, Honda Activa / Shine, TVS Star City / Sport, Royal Enfield Bullet / Classic (all generations including older AC-wired models), older Yamaha and Suzuki commuter bikes. If you're not sure, send a photo of your current headlight bulb to support@carxneo.com — we'll confirm fit before you order.

Will 14W actually be brighter than my halogen?

Yes — meaningfully so. LEDs convert electricity into light far more efficiently than halogen filaments do (about 100 LM per watt for a properly-engineered LED vs about 15-25 LM per watt for halogen). So 14W of LED produces roughly 4x the visible light of a stock 35W halogen. At 6000K cool white, the colour temperature is also closer to daylight — the colour band where the human eye resolves contrast and edges fastest. Net effect on a dark road: lane markings appear earlier, road edges register at a longer distance, oncoming traffic is more visible.

Is the 14W's beam pattern as good as the higher-tier bulbs?

The 14W uses the same HS1/H4 form factor as the rest of the BikeXNeo line, so the LED chip sits in the same position as the original halogen filament — meaning your bike's stock reflector beam pattern is preserved. The difference vs the 36W and 48W is total output (more lumens), not beam shape. The cut-off line and dispersion are determined by your bike's headlight assembly, not the bulb. Bottom line: same beam pattern as halogen, just brighter.

What does "Socket to Socket" mean for installation?

It means plug-and-play — no rewiring, no external driver box, no modifications to your bike's headlight assembly. Open the headlight cover, pull out the existing halogen bulb, plug the BikeXNeo 14W into the same socket, close the cover. Most riders complete this in 5-10 minutes with no prior mechanic experience. If your bike currently uses an HS1 or H4 socket — which most Indian motorcycles do — the install is genuinely that simple.

Will this trigger battery drain on my older bike?

No — quite the opposite. At 14W, the bulb draws less than half of a typical 35W halogen. So your alternator and battery will run cooler than they did with the stock bulb. The "Energy Saving — Low Battery Consumption" positioning is real engineering, not marketing — and on older bikes with smaller alternators, this is meaningful: the 14W LED actually relieves load on the electrical system while delivering more light.

Is the 6-month warranty real?

Yes. Six months against manufacturing defects, covered by CarXNeo Solutions LLP. The 14W warranty period matches the Power Beam 36W's 6 months (the 48W Pro flagship has 1 year). The warranty period reflects accelerated-life-test data on the entry-tier components. Email support@carxneo.com to register a claim. Exclusions: physical damage, water ingress, unauthorised modifications, damage from electrical mis-installation.

Why is this ₹595 when cheap bike LEDs are ₹150?

Cheap ₹150 bulbs typically use unbinned LED dies (random colour temperatures), no thermal management (the chip overheats and dims within 5-10 minutes), and skip the AC/DC compatibility entirely. The BikeXNeo 14W uses binned 6000K LEDs (consistent colour from one bulb to the next), proper thermal venting (so brightness stays consistent), and is engineered for both AC and DC supply — meaningful manufacturing cost that ₹150 budget LEDs skip. ₹595 reflects the engineering choices, the 6-month warranty support, and a manufacturer who'll honour the warranty (which most ₹150 bulb sellers don't).
