    As you can see, some did much better than others! When we look at beam patterns for 7-inch round headlights, we look for a straight cut-off line, width left to right, height under the cut-off, and a strong hotspot positioned at or directly below the center of the cut-off line. Any light above the cut-off line is a potential glare in the eyes of oncoming drivers.

      Well, in conjunction with other reviews, you can get an idea of whether or not the company actually puts in the time, effort, and money to make a decent headlight, vs one that doesn't. Which can be helpful when you are looking to buy a headlight that isn't reviewed.

      That's because most people have no idea that the concept of a beam pattern exists or why you would need such a thing - they just go "wow" when you direct a searchlight up the road and complain like hell when one comes down the road towards them.

    • @Code325
      @Code325 5 лет назад +14

      9/10 people also blueish light just because they perceive it to be brighter even though a more natural hue is more practical and usable by the human eye.

    • @JoppedeZeeuw
      @JoppedeZeeuw 5 лет назад +14

      ​@@Code325 Now, that is simply not true.
      Short explanation: The rod cells in our eyes also have a peak sensitivity and that lies around 500nm (498nm to be exact), which is around the greenish cyan level in the spectrum. Read further here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rod_cell
      In artificial lighting terms, we work with color temperatures, and for color temperatures we're looking for the temperature at which most of the energy used to create light is transferred into light in the range that's most beneficial. Go higher (10k+, into the blue range) and a lot of energy is used to create light in the part of the spectrum that lies above the rod cell sensitivity peak, and go below and too much energy is used to create light in the part of the spectrum that lies below it. The sweet spot for color temperature to trigger the rod cells is actually between 6000K and 8500K, which is 'cold white' to 'bluish white', as you may remember from the first HID headlights.
      Light produced by Sodium streetlights is almost exclusively light with a 600nm wavelength, which is only about 15-20% efficient for our rod cells. So you'd need a sodium light that's 5x as powerful to produce the same amount of nighttime visibility as a cold white LED would have to produce. The brightest halogens produce light of 3200K, and while that's noticeably better than sodium light, still about 70% of the energy is wasted in infrared light (so doesn't even account towards the amount of visible light altogether) and in the visible light spectrum it also peaks around 600nm (although halogen does produce some light with narrower wavelengths, so that allows for a higher color temperature and better visibility).
      This video goes into great detail how our eyes work and what light temperature does for visibility with artificial light at night time: ruclips.net/video/wIC-iGDTU40/видео.html
      White light is actually better for nighttime vision, simply because more energy used by the headlights is put into creating light in a wavelength that works best for our rod cells that do most of the work at limited light situations. Lower light temperatures, such as incandescents, halogens and sodium lights, are massively inefficient because the wavelength of light they produce is not the wavelength that's best received by our eyes. Additionally, a more white light works very well psychologically because the cooler hue keeps us awake better, again being a positive influence towards road safety.
      EDIT: Additionally, that's also an argument why the measurement in Lux is not all that accurate in objectifying 'brightness'. At nighttime, 1000 lux of 2200K light is as efficient as 200 lux at 6000K is. So even though in this video you can see the stock Jeep halogen headlights outputting 830 lux at low beams and the KC Highlights output 660 lux at low beams max, the latter still looks massively more bright simply because the hue of the light is more efficient for our eyes. So when looking for lights, don't just look for the lux, but take the hue into consideration as well.

      @@JoppedeZeeuw
      You could have just said that human eyes function best at about 6000k. That being a good average light from the sun between clear and overcast days.
      Its RUclips comments. Most people aren't even aware that light is just electromagnetic radiation, let alone created from ionized gas. Spectroscopy is also something that eludes most.
      I do agree with you on everything though, including lux as a form of measurement. A laser pointer can have far higher lux than any headlight, but it would be unusable. Like my retina burning surplus aircraft search light. Something crazy like 200 amp draw and like 8,000 lux on an area the size of a car from well over a mile away.
      Edit, it's actually 100 amp at 28vdc. Still, 2800 watts of xenon light is nothing you want to look at.

      Yeah, I noticed more and more each day the amount of LED lights on the road that just blind everyone. These are terrible lights. I love this review series and I think I might take one of their recommendations. I wish the police etc would crack down on these people who have terrible lights because it has caused accidents from blinding other drivers.

  • @gloucesterdavid
    @gloucesterdavid 4 года назад

    Still thankful I found this just before purchasing my wife a 2017 Wrangler with Halogen headlights in December 2019. We chose the JWSpeaker LED headlights and complimented them with the matching driving lights and the JWSpeaker LED tail/brake lights. AMAZING difference at night. Took a little time to get the aiming down right after installation to keep from being "flashed" by oncoming drivers as they produce so much light.
    Thank you again!

      Honestly, find a JK owner that's replaced their stock lights and get those from them for cheap. The stock JK housings with silver star bulbs are still worlds better than a sealed beam. You just need an h4 to h13 adapter to plug them in, had for cheap on eBay.

    Couldn’t possibly be any happier with my KC Highlights 7" LED reflectors on my JK. Outstanding product and quality as well as the backing from the company. The light spread and control from them is near perfection. Low beam can be adjusted with precision as to not disturb oncoming vehicles. High beams out perform my pillar mounted off road floods.
    Thrill3d with KC product and quality.
    Fellow Jeep and truck owners ... please invest the three dollars in a T3 or T6 and adjust your headlights ... it’s just low class to lift or load your vehicles and not adjust your headlights. Be responsible ... and fog lights are meant for fog. No one is passing you thinking how amazing it was to be blinded by your many non DOT lights.

    I spoke to you at length a few years back about 7" Round headlights for my 1966 F250 EcoBoost Swap Truck. With all the pro's & con's of each you suggested the Anzo version. I bought them and they were so fantastic I bought 2 more pair for other '66 Trucks. I used to limit my night time driving but now it has become much more enjoyable to drive at night. Until someone comes out with a better light for the $$ I will continue to buy the Anzo. My latest '66 F100 Project also got them. (Orange/White 482" FE)

    • @randysrestoration
      @randysrestoration 5 лет назад +2

      I should add: Prior to talking to you I bought a pair from a Mustang place. They seemed bright but the pattern was so bad they were simply not usable. Did not shoot them but they went into the round file where they belonged. I learned a lot after speaking with you and also watching these reviews.

    Great video. You’re actually spot on with the “spider” style headlights. I owned IllumiNATION LEDs before the Chinese seller takeover on eBay and Amazon. I’ll take the blame for turning those flood lights into headlights because I advertised and presold hundreds of them before actually getting them in hand. All that only to find out the bracket on the back of the housing wouldn’t fit a JK. I had to cut the aluminum mount bracket off of every single pair so I could fulfill orders. My manufacturers quickly changed the design and they flooded the market with them. Fun times. In my defense it was a time in the LED world when cool and new stuff was necessary to stay relevant and make sales. These headlights outsold any lights I’ve ever sold.

    I would like to see a similar comparison, but aimed at motorcycles. There are motorcycle issues not addressed (running high beams during the day for higher visibility, but w/o blinding oncoming traffic) or different (can't necessarily run fog lights to make up for low beam near field dimness). Overall, though a very informative video.

    I’ve actually been looking for new 7” headlights for my M939 military truck. Considering how high off the ground my headlight mounts are I definitely need to get something with a smooth gradient for low beams so that I can still see the ground right in front of the truck. I love that you have taken the time to check all the patterns and brightness as well as colors in these 7” headlights. One last problem for me to deal with is finding one that I can feed 24V to it, otherwise I’ll have to setup custom wiring just for the headlights.

    The JW Speaker 8700 Evo 2 is a great headlight. I love it! EXCEPT!... it is designed to be used in a pair.

Two headlights, they overlap each other so the dark spots go away.

    Regarding your comments on the KC Highlites: You don’t need light 4 feet in front of your car, you certainly don’t need fog lights on clear nights. Keep in mind: fog lights are aimed upwards, they’re separate from low beams because they’re only to be turned on in thick fog.
    The generic Chinese copy, it almost looks like there was a bit of sprue left over on the lens or shutter.

    Honestly half of the ones you hated weren't very bad compared to the ones you seem infatuated with. Now consider the fact they're more than 5x less expensive than some of those others you like so much and it's pretty clear they're really not bad at all... Hell, if I made a side by side comparison without the brand names I doubt most people with favoritism and biases(regardless if they'd like to admit it or not) could tell which one is actually better.

    I had the first gen JW Speakers on my JKUR when they first came out and there was a delay from high beam to low.
    You'd flick your highs up and it takes a full second or two before reverting to the normal driving pattern. They fixed it about a week or two after launch and the shop I bought them from had it covered. Excellent upgrade IMO from stock.
    I can't tell from the other models in this review whether there is a headlight better than the original 8700 model gen 1.2(?) or not. When I need more light, I put my wide angle fogs (Baja design) on and see everything side to side. I love my setup. light bar at the bull bar for throwing light much further down the road when needed. 👌

    I Really Enjoyed this... Very informative. (I sometimes did not quite understand why you shot up some of them, that seemed to give a good light pattern.) ... Which brings me to a comment >>> Something OI think would be a GREAT additional bit of information, and understanding for the viewer, would be to have a "Parking Lot Demo"... a large space where you could do an overhead view of the light coverage pattern. Or at least, a "driver's viewpoint"... The parking grids would give a good 'reference' of distance and spread. Maybe even have some objects at the same specific locations -- a 'dog' about to cross the road, a child a few yards off the edge of the 'road', a couple of 'mailboxes' or trees and bushes, etc -- that would show how well the test light actually "Lights Up" objects ahead. "The Wall" and the 25' readings tell us a Lot. But seeing how that 'translates' to Real World Experience can be very useful...

I have no complaints about this super bright item; however, I found out the quality of the lenses which is easy to scratch after two weeks. What is after the Trucklight band? They are all copy design of America bands, they all look like the same pattern and their design is super close than those early items from China. What a shame you are talking about? I hope they aren't copying from Trucklight. I don't care about the item which is made in America or not. I do not trust the other copy design item. I buy good design and quality item.

    The Putco Luminix illuminated the entire back wall on both low and high beam settings, so my question is why did you not comment on them as a great choice. I asume the smile on your face and the fact that you did'nt shoot it is an indication that it is usable. A response would be greatly appriciated.

    • @HeadlightRevolution
      @HeadlightRevolution  4 года назад

      That is exactly why we didn't mention it, as it lights up the entire wall! That beam pattern is so un-safe for driving as it will always be in the eyes of oncoming traffic, even on the low beam! The other issue with those is that since the light is so dispersed, you'll not have as much viewing distance(throw) as almost any other option! They would be great if that was a light bar or spotlight, but totally un-usable in an actual headlight application.
