    This is what we are waiting. And it’s all thanks to u man. ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼

    My favourite thing is that this is an integrated unit with less failure points and lifetime warranty, AND that the chipset is even closer in dimensiins to the halogen filament. It will better ensure that the beam pattern is in compliance as designed by the manufacturer.

    When I did the Auxilam H11 test I touched the heat sink and it was pretty hot, and I was thinking to myself wish that heat can be sent to the front of the housing. But I wonder if all that heat sent to front the LED chips won't last long? Or produce poor light output?

  • @toyotabrony

    My favorite thing about the diode dynamics - SL2 pro, is the real observation about the color temperature measurement and the construction of the led bulbs that they put in.
    Because it’s very very intriguing and super satisfied that they put so much effort into this.
    As a Lasfit enthusiast, this brand is indeed the best. That’s my honest opinion from me to Diode Dynamics: 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

    Would it be possible to get a test on dual beam bulbs that have the high and low in one bulb? I have h13’s and I feel like the same bulbs that I try after watching your videos have a bit different performance. I know it varies from different housings and such but I feel like there might be some differences between the performance of a single beam and dual beam bulb. For example between the bulbs I've tired some use one led chip for low and the other chip for high beam. Other led bulbs use one chip for low and both chips at once for high. It makes the spread really wide when they use both at once.

    Love your content but surprised to see you conflate temperature and total heat output. A bub in theory could be 1 million degrees and put out 1 watt. Conversely a bulb could run at 150° and output 300 watts.

    would this still blind the crap out of other drivers when used in a halogen reflector? less than other bulbs it sounds like?

    • @CarLightReviews
      @CarLightReviews  5 месяцев назад +2

      There's a few factors to that. It really comes down to compatibility of the reflector wit the light that is being replaced. The other aspect is how well the lights are aimed. Even a old worn out halogen can blind oncoming traffic if it is not aimed correctly.

      It seems many of their cheaper bulbs are just Chinese bulbs with tweaks. Like the 7443 switchback, which I was unimpressed with. The white was nice and bright but the amber was barely as bright as the halogen and the color was a bit off. Same thing with some of their other 7440 and similar series bulbs. But it looks like their more expensive stuff is more impressive, but personally, I find the LASFIT to be as good or better for much cheaper.
