Hi guys! Today we'll perform some experiments to find out which is the best color temperature for bad weather. We'll take a look at a unique LED design which can change color from cold white to yellow and another 3 halogen bulbs from Osram, Pegasus and.. another one. Beside all this the products will be subjected to an endurance test to find out which lasts longer.

About the rating:
At the end of the video, I thought that it would be a nice idea to have a rating for the products that I test. So, based on the general 5 star rating used all over, I made my rating to better suit my personality. The rating is based on my testing and my opinion of a specific product. It takes into consideration many factors like performance, reliability, availability and many other aspects which are essential to a consumer. Of course, some of these factors may not be applicable to other regions or demographics. As price is another factor in this rating, a product may be cheaper in other regions, rendering my rating as inadequate. In this case, you should reconsider if the product is suitable for you or not.

I wonder if Pegasus will pay for damages with burnt wires and sockets, that should not be allowed to be sold as 55w bulb. At least sell it as what it is so people know. Not a good to max out any electronic circuits if you want it to last some years.

to me the biggest advantage of yellow fogs is when combined with white light from another fixture, the dual shadow of the two colors it casts on road obstacles and ruts, ect. lets you see details WAY better.

In the 80's, I was stationed in Northern California and did a lot of skiing in the Sierra mountains. I had installed a set of Bosch fog lights that were more a gold color, but what I really liked was how detailed I could see the conditions of the road surface. I could even see the white fog line on the road throught a few inches of snow. When I got a new car that had oem fog lights, the detailed was far less and I also experience more strain on my eyes. Now, I have yellow LED fog lights, but I think those old Bosch fog lights were far superior in allowing to see in bad weather.

I've seen those before, but never put too much thought into them. I had some NAPA "Gold" (not really gold colored) big glass ones in a 88 Supra i had, noticed one was dim and tested with how much power was going though with an induction amp multi-meter. One was about 50 watts and the other was down to 32watts, rewired with heavier gauge wire and ended up at around 75 watts each headlight.. that's when i learned that they build in resistance into the circuits to get to 55 watts ;-P They lasted me about 6 years till i sold the car, same with the NAPA wipers they i conditioned and cleaned once a year with PB Blaster (old formula, new stuff is garbage).

Those old lights were designed for racing - as full strength replacements for your main bulbs. If you look at Sebring and other 24 hour races, you will see that many of the cars are running these type of yellow driving lights - much more yellow and brighter than modern "fog lights". And, yes, this was the original design of fog lights - as a second set of halogens at full strength that you could just turn on/switch to instead of the mains. (A/B, not both at once). When you ru both at once, you have to put the yellow pattern underneath the white one as it will be absorbed by the white light. Also, you need to run that setup in high beam mode as most of the low-beam area will be saturated by the yellow light's area. (ie - the high beams need to shine *above* the fogs, not into them), I miss my old Volvo - it also had those Bosch lights in the main grille and an A/B switch on the dash.

Back, when I was studying electrical engineering, they were teaching us the benefits of the yellow and warmer white light at the road. The main benefit of the yellowish light is that it improves the ability to detect and decriminate the objects and also it is easier to the human eye. For me, it is much easier to detect your contour while you are measuring the yellow light in fog conditions rather than the cold white. Today, the main trend followed by the manufacturers is brighter and more cold white light, that may be looks "cool" but is not the best to use at the roads.

White light is not brighter. 4300k to 5000k is the optimal daylight light for night driving without causing eye strain. 3000k to 4300k light is optimal for penetrating within foggy and rainy environments. - Anything above 5000k is just about your liking with how much blue light you want, but it takes adjusting to and is not pleasant for long night drives, but may keep you more alert.

I found an aftermarket head lamp for my car that upgraded it to projector and went with a 35W HID 5000K color. Got the distance without binding oncoming traffic and the color isn’t a giveaway that it isn’t stock. My biggest shock was how much better projectors are in fog! They shoot under with much less scatter up in front of you. You really see the difference if someone is in a parallel lane and their standard lamps make it harder for you to see in fog lol!

On a 2nd gen GS300 headlight design was waaaay ahead of its time. The bulb setup is great for all conditions! The low beams on the outsude, high beams are in the middle, yet they are also the day time running lights in yellow, and stay on when the low beams are turned on. The fog lights are white bulb ( clear lense outside of Japan ) so it actually acts like low beams just at the bottom of the car and they are angled outward. So when the fog lights are turned on ( only functions with low beams ) the day time running yellow lights are actually designed as a beam between upper and low beams which all come to a focus of ONE BEAM for all conditions! GENIUS!!!

Excellent video Sergui and very informative for people who don't understand the workings of car headlights. I've been saying this for years on my forum, but people just didn't understand my point ( or didn't want to! ), some people still see it as the brighter/whiter bulbs they buy, the more they will see at night! France many years ago used yellow headlights for the exact reason you mention, you still see yellow fog lights over here ( I live in France ), there's also a very good reason why street lighting uses Sodium lights, as they emit a slightly yellowish tint to see better in bad weather conditions. Also, there's an excellent reason why 'shooting glasses' have yellow lenses ....................... you can see much better through yellow tints ; ) Hopefully now people will wise-up about HID and LED headlights, I've always hated that harsh bright white light coming toward me at night, not only does it hurt my eyes slightly ( causing me to look away ), but I can still see the lights in my eyes once the other car has passed!

The best products i found was the Narva Contrast + (100W), good in all condition, and really perfect in foggy ones. Now, with "new generation cars", i use Xenon 3000K in fog projectors and 4500K in low beam. (I'm leaving close yto a river, and i have a lot of fog)

This is why old street lamps (in the UK at least) used to have a yellow sodium hue. They didn’t match the light output of white lights and made colour identification more difficult but they increased contrast which made it easier to see other road users. Now most street lights are white LED which increases brightness and colour definition but reduces contrast. LED street lights also reflect more off wet surfaces, meaning they create a lot more light pollution, making stargazing more difficult.

Yellow led light(especially in fog) is so much better and is so much more visible than white light. The new LED white lights tend to be blinding and are safety hazards for oncoming drivers. Yellow LEDs are less intense to the eyes, which are preferred. So I'm not sure why some people prefer aesthetics over safety. I mean I guess they prefer to be beautiful and die. But what's the point of trying to be beautiful if they can't show the beauty to anyone when life's cut short? 😂

It will be interesting to compare them on wet road as well. My Renault Capture with LED headlights is terrible during nights when the road is wet. It is almost like you don't have headlights on.

Yeah .same as my car. During good weather at night, my headlight is shining like a champion. When it raining or after rain, my headlights shine like a dick.

Really impressed by your testing. I believe it has more to do with how the light is aimed or projected out not to reflect back at you than anything. Try driving with high beams in the fog vs driving with only the low beams. Quite a difference.

@@gatorage850 I watched the video and saw the difference. One thing I hate with the high power led lights is the backwash from highway sign. Sometimes just blinding.

On my Jeep JK that I owned, i switched to LED headlamps and noticed straight away that they were far brighter than the factory Hella halogen's it replaced... HOWEVER, even in perfect conditions everything blended in especially wildlife and I wouldn't see a kangaroo until I was right on top of him where as the Halogens it was far easier to spot things further away. Went back to the OEM Halogens within a few weeks.
