Good eye! I see both cats and foxes on a regular basis, along with skunks, opossums, raccoons, armadillos, porcupines, the occasional hog, and of course lots of deer!
The lower power level Sports have or appear to have a smaller focus area. Diode Dynamics has really good customer service, reach out to them with questions about which may be best for your application.
The driving version only comes in the sport version, cant find the pro version on any of the websites. The fog light version comes in sport/pro/max and with or without Amber backlighting.
The ss3 are available in multiple power level’s and configurations. Here is a link: www.diodedynamics.com/stage-series-3-sae-dot-white-pro-led-pod-pair.html
Why would you buy the SAE/DOT model and aim them high like that? They're specifically designed to be highway legal with their sharp cut-off design. Any of their other models would be ideal for your use case...
@@DoItTogether2022 Good to hear, I’ve got a pair on the way. Sounds like it’s the floods mounted up top that have more of an issue with glare on the hood, but the driving lights seem to be closer to a spot beam pattern. Thanks for taking the time to post!
Are these meant to be off road only lights? Would like to get something like this, as I was originally looking for a light bar but they are prohibited to use on the roads around here.
@@DoItTogether2022 sweet, I have a 94 lexus and saw some 3d printed adapters to make these fit right in the factory fog light locations. Would be a great addition considering the old halogen bulbs just don't perform well anymore and am hesitant about getting an HID conversion or try those aftermarket ebay projector headlights. Thanks for this video and the one comparing the pro VS sport ss3's 👍
From their website in regards to the SS3 When installed as a pair and aimed in accordance with your state's regulations, the Driving White pattern meets SAE J581 standard as a Driving/Auxiliary High Beam Light, and the Fog pattern meets SAE J583 standard as a Foglamp, for legal on-road use
Looked like a fox or a cat ran across the road in front of you at 2:41. Great video!

I respect how observant you are!
I thought the driving lens had a much smaller focus. Those look like there is a lot of spread. Which is good for my application

@@ArbitraryLifestyle They have to be dimmed the same as high beams. SAE/DOT legal doesn’t mean you can leave them on all the time.
Those are worth it! Do you have them angles out wards slightly ?
No, these are pretty much straight ahead.
Are they so bright you get people flashing lights at you?
It would be like leaving a really bright pair of high beams on. These aren’t for use in traffic. I turn them off as soon as I see an oncoming vehicle.
How’s the glare on the hood with these mounted up there?
Not bad at all. There is a little of course but I got used to it very quickly.

@@natgilson Thank you for watching! Make sure to come back and let us know how you like them!

They are sae certified lights, which make them legal for on road use. Definitely check your state and county laws though.
