Note: This video is for educational purposes only and may show street-use content with products that may not be DOT-compliant for use on public roads. The video is not intended to imply vehicle-specific street legality. LED and HID bulbs are street legal in the USA for fog light use and not in low beam or high beam headlights because they are not compliant with DOT / FMVSS108. When looking for on-road-use headlight upgrades we recommend DOT-compliant headlight housings, not bulb replacements. Certain specialty vehicles strictly limited to off-street use and not having DOT registration or license plates may use these products exclusively off-streets.

We Do Lighting Better Because We Test!

I’d say from personal experience the yellow helps in heavy rain and fog. But we just need brighter yellow lights. Now more power

Blue is traditionally used for rain, amber for snow and fog.
The beauty about yellow led bulbs is it doesn't blind up coming traffic as much as 6000/6500k bulbs. Guy in my erea runs LED bulbs in his headlamps, what a difference it does. Fallowed him during a snowstorm, his yellow beams were a lot better than my 6500k.

Great videos! So much good info! So if I have a dedicated bulb that handles both DRL and high beams (ie: I want them to prioritize visibility in inclement weather), are yellow halogens the way to go? Thank you! Note: I think you got a type-o in your title!
Yes! I’ve been asking this question for quite some time.

At my place many would put 6000K - 6500K LEDs and they’re often brighter than their headlights. Not only that, once it was on a thunderstorm and this idiot turned on his headlights, fog lights and high-beams and what’s worst is that all of ‘em are at 6000K - 6500K temperature and blinds everyone coming their way. God, sometimes people’s “preferences” can make a difference on the road safety.

If the road is wet from a heavy rain white light is basically useless. You can't see a pot hole until is too late. I hope that yellow led headlight (Real bright ones) offers start increasing in the market. Thanks for the video

I have s4s in my 03 sierra. 3 or 4 years now. Love them. So when I upgraded my 2010 malibu headlights and fogs s4 was my first look. I went yellow for the fogs and white for the headlights. It was a toss up between the 2 strokes. Glad I went the way I did. After seeing this I think i would have been disappointed with the 2 strokes color. It could just be my mind playing tricks but i think the yellows do help over the stock white halogens just because of the contrast difference between the white s4 headlights. I can easily see the difference between the two when i turn my fogs on. If the headlight would have stayed stock halogens then they probably wouldn't show a big difference. Once again. HR is on their game and I love the information they bring. This is where I buy

Are DD SLF white fog lights any better?
Which bulbs would you recommend me to swap with yellow for night performance. Dipped beam (H1) or foglights (H11)? Note that the fog light is built into the same headlights.- Peugeot 307 ph1
Ran my fogs with the SLF’s for about a month until one went out, then upgraded them to the SL1 and I am much happier. The brightness on the SLF just wasn’t there as shown in this video.

Is it OK to use LED fog lights that have a fan? Assuming most fog light housings do not have dust covers like low beam housings have.
@HeadlightRevolution
Жыл бұрын
It is okay to use LEDs in fog lights, however if you do not have a dust cap for your fog - the GTR Ultra 2 LED or Morimoto 2stroke 3.0 might be one of the better options since the fans are protected
On the fence with yellow fogs. But at least these have yellow bulbs and don't need yellow lenses. Aftermarket fog light analysis is critical now because OEM's don't think new cars need them anymore when obviously we do. You're all we've got to help us choose.

You should do a demonstration on the hi/low dual led foglight. I added a pair to my car and the 6000k led hi goes well over 1/4 mile the low is bright enough to drive in white out conditions when the headlights are off. The low beam is in 3000k

Actual amber has a better qualities than yellow. Also I have found with most rigid products has way to much of a hot spot to do any good.
Why don't youll just use steam machine in front of the lights and then measure the output.... Or a rainy/foggy day... That would be a more comparable comparison

Personally I think yellow fog lights look awful and I much prefer 4600-5000k white lights. I personally run SV4 low beams and GTR bulbs in the fogs, and they’re an awesome pairing for me and I have great light output for more rural driving as I often do during hunting season.
