As many of you know, Truck-Lite was nice enough to send a set of their updated and improved LED headlights to 3 members of JEEPForum; I'll install mine tomorrow.
I've marked the exact location of the Jeep for reference. Please take note of what you can see off to the sides of the road as well as the FedEx boxes that I've used for markers. Our peripheral vision and the ability to see to the sides is what keeps Bambi off our hoods.
Round one in the war will feature the set of Cibie Z-Beams that I have now. They were purchased from Daniel Stern Lighting. The bulbs are Osram Rallye 70/65 and they are harnessed/relayed/plugged by Rallylights.
Markers are at 25yards L/R, 50 yards L/R, 75 yards L/R
Jeep is on the right side of a 2-lane road; camera on hood in front of driver
Ambient temperature 35 degrees F; lens temperature 157 degrees F at 6"
Lux readings Lowbeam/Highbeam:
25Right-65/ 49 * 25Left-11/ 5
50Right-4/ 29 * 50Left-3/ 4
75Right-1/ 17 * 75Left-0/ 5
25 feet dead center 583/ 970
