Good stuff, TW I knew some of this in a disparate way (flashlights, etc.), but to see it in a cohesive narrative is very helpful. |

There's a guy on there from Kent that adds to flashlights with incredible heat control & throw. Lotta good deals on there, too, from vendors. |

Good information. It is surprisingly complicated when I looked into changing over to LEDs. In the End, all the conversions got to be too much and I decided to stick with conventional bulbs until the technology and demand catches up to be make it easier. I also wish my fog lights could turn on separate from my main beams. Having both on in the fog is somewhat counter productive. |

Nice write-ups. Can you maybe touch on turn signal lighting? You talk about brake and parking, but how about LED's for turns? The how/why people get hyper speed flashers and how to make that not happen with LED..? |

Damn. I was perfectly happy with my car’s lighting ... until now. That’s really well done, TW. Most impressive, sir. |

I have a 2017 Tahoe Z71 that has the HID/Projector style lens, but has an H4 in it. These are the exact same lens assemblies (with halo) that the next level up LTZ has, just with a downgraded bulb. I hate my yellow lights, dim and basically worthless. Thoughts, suggestions for a compatible setup? |
