Narva LL is a 55 Watt long life bulb, advertized at 930 hours of use (double a normal H7).

Osram 55 is the bulbs that came in my aftermarket headlights.
Osram 65 is a high brightness version of an H7, it's an H9 bulb on an H7 base. It puts out 2100 lumens, 700 more than a standard H7. High beam only.

Sunshine 100 is the shitty "100 watt" bulbs that the punk-ass stunters put in my GSX-R before I got it. They suck.
I did my very best to photograph and adjust all the bulbs at the same angle and distance, and adjusted the photos so the mounting flanges were lined up.
Note that the Osram and Narva (quality bulbs) have very, very similar filament placement, and the Sunshine (shitty bulb) the filiment is way off. That might explain why they suck so much; the beam pattern is all wrong.
One thing I found interesting is how the 65 Watt Osram's filiment (actually an H9)is longer than the Narva and 55 Watt Osram. I thought (mistakenly, it seems) the H9 filament was shorter.
