We Do Lighting Better Because We Test!

A summary table at the end of the video would be very helpful.

[itachii]

Such a comprehensive test, great video! Thank you for taking the time as always to really prove the testing!

[johnmackey]

Thanks for the comparison. I wonder what lux the stock fog lights are on a 2016 F250.

[valiantcuda]

You know on the SS3's you can exchange the lens... so you can put the spot lens you had on the sport onto the max light to see how that would stack up... Also, it would be interesting to see how the white/clear SS3 lens work on their yellow lights with the yellow chips.

[aaronolsen]

I love seeing these videos with hands on testing of different lights. Thanks for doing this! I'd be curious how the vision x gen 1 25w light cannon and the cg2 40w would compare to these spot pods. I know they're a little bigger but they are in a similar power draw class. Not sure if you'd be willing to test them against the Morimoto and DD SS3 max in white or not but it would be great if you did.

[sxdriver]

Are these measurements after letting them heat stabilize, for example 15-20 minutes constant on then measuring output?

Also, are these SAE compliant?

[abdullahal-shimri]

I just installed these on my truck as ditch lights. They not only look good and almost invisible, but they’re very bright. Mine are pointing down and out and illuminate the side of the truck.

[HAMMER_.]

Thanks for this video, i was wondering how the 4banger woyld compare to the diode dynamics max sae fogs.
Looks like i have alot of considering to do for my custom lighting!

[shaneintegra]

Could you do a video on P15D bulbs? Seems like there is a huge gap in quality with these types of bulbs. Also a bunch of people with mini bikes have headlight bulbs that run on the crank coil itself and no battery. Is there a good option for those types of setups? There is very little info about this in the community

[fanflyer]

I've never seen a Headlight Revolution review of the PIAA RF series light. would love to know

[claudeperrault]

I love your videos! They are “spot” on and they always help me make an informed decision. Keep up the good work!

[twojacksonestand]

can you tell the difference physically between the NCS and HXB without power supplied to them?

[OptimusBob]

I have a 2022 dodge durango RT plus can I use them on my truck? I saw license plate that I could install them .what you recommend? Thanks.

[darrickhock]

You said the SS3 Max have a wider beam pattern but the 4bannger is brighter ? How much wider are the SS3 Max? Real world driving video for fogs please.

[steveb]

Like these Lights however can you answer me this. I want to use either the Morimotos or Diode Dyamics as fog lights. I have a ford f150 2016 XLT. Now you recommend keeping the new fog light install at -3 degrees to mimic the OEM fog light dispersion pattern. Have you encountered anyone who has a 4 inch lift on the their truck and how would they be aimed I do not blind anyone and yet maintain the best light dispersion with the fog lights. Your help would be appreciated. Great videos by the way. I currently have Morimoto Gen 2 XB's and love them.

[MIAPhilly]

Does the 4 banger compare to the lp series from baja designs?

[mo-reesespieces]

Have you tested all the fog lights to see which ones do the best in the rain?
I have installed cheap fog lights to my truck. In dry conditions they actually do okay. In the rain, I could barely see the road.
Another test would be to test the fog lights with someone parked facing you, with headlights on to see if it cuts through the glare of not only the slick glass/mirror shine of the rain, but also the reflection from the light facing you as well.
I realize you do not always have rain but to test in the rain with that glass shine off the road would truly be a test of tests.

[bigedd]

When are these coming out?? I don't see them on the website 😕. Must have them

[NateBoyce]

How does 4Banger compare to Baja Designs XL80?

[phalanx]

so are they gonna be making a light bar? and will they ship to Australia? the diode dynamics ones caught my eye but they dont ship to Australia and all the Custom importers i know of have gone out of business or retired.
