Approved shitpost! Serious note, it's primarily the oem's now. What gets me is that all these experts can't figure out that the blue wavelengths are horrible for night vision. Add the 2 billion candle power and now I am grateful to be able to get a sun Yan at 9 pm. There needs to be legislation to dictate color temperature along with a maximum lumens.

Apologies for format and grammar. For the old school Rëððit alum.

Wohoo, go class of 2008!

If by experts you mean engineering and r&d and design, oh they know. But consumers want BRIGHT they want BLUE and they want to SKULLFUCK YOUR RETINAS, so that's what they sell.

There's a few versions but the major aspects are lighting around the corner, plus my favorites turning off areas that shine into cabs for both oncoming and same direction travel, and illuminating signage. Video is good but watching the tests in person and driving with it is weird but nice. You can see fuckin everything but by the look of it when driving i at least didn't feel like it was blinding.
