When it comes to using multi-sided LED bulbs in your headlights, there are several reasons why you should avoid them. First and foremost, these bulbs often scatter light in multiple directions, which can result in decreased visibility and potentially dangerous driving conditions. Additionally, the beam pattern of LED bulbs can vary widely, leading to uneven lighting and potentially blinding other drivers on the road. Overall, it's typically best to stick LED bulbs that mimic your original bulbs and we have the best selection for those.

Could you do a video comparing 360 LED bulbs in a projector headlight? There are multiple videos on KZfaq demonstrating that 2-sided LED bulbs in a projector lens has an unsafe beam pattern compared to the 360 bulbs.

Sure, that's a great idea!

Does the halogen filament not emit light in a 360degree direction?

Its also inside a glass tube; not mounted onto a circuit board/shaft.

Optics still matter! The high beam reflector was deisnged for a filament sitting at a specific distance from the base of the bulb, which the Morimoto 2stroke 3.0 is great at replicating!

It does, but i think that was a point not worth mentioning in the video. The most important factor to account for is how far the diodes are from the base of the bulb so that way it utilizes the reflector as designed. The inexpensive brands just use a dozen super bright diodes that aren’t in the right location for the reflector to catch and throw light forward - this is what scatters light and blinds oncoming traffic.

Yes. But with led bulb that’s 360 degrees, it’s too many LED’s. A very thin body with two sided led chips work way better. And always better. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pNR0ktZ1vLTOdas.htmlsi=yCvhE0tneTBYM5wR

Would the multi sided bulbs work good in a projector?

Nope, only used the double-sided!

Here’s the reason why multi-sided led bulbs will never work at all for both projector, and especially reflector headlights. Two sided led bulbs work a lot better.

But if I have a headlight with projectors, 360 degree led would be perfect solution and will not impact other drivers.

U are completely wrong. It may work in the projector, but it will not be able to create a hotspot at all. And it will be a lot less bright than ur original halogen bulbs. A two sided led bulbs will be way brighter in a projector, than the multisided led bulbs in the projector. Never works like that.
