    Maybe try a little PAM cooking spray on the lenses to keep the stuff from sticking? It used to work for DirecTV satellite dishes.

    Typically cheap offshore c**p, but i have heard guys having sucess with them. I would bet side to side with the Speaker, you would be able to see noticable difference in the light output of 2 makers.

    I run the speaker low beams up here in Alaska and the light output is worth the money although in wet sticky snow they build up.

    Look at how much higher your LED's are set! Flashlights taped to your bumper set that high would give better light too! You're not comparing apples to apples with those lights adjusted so much higher.

    Emergency vehicle LED's are too bright. You come up on an accident scene at night with a bunch of emergency vehicles there and you're blinded. And then there's usually a cop waving his arm back and forth giving you "directions". Too bad you can't see him or which way he wants you to go.

    LEDs are bright but if you drive in snowy conditions the snow sticks on them becouse they run cold I use them as aux lites work very well but not when it's snowing there to cold to melt the snow

    What good are they when they are covered in snow and ice? I know the LED's on my trailer can't even be seen when it's snowing out.

    It's not the type of headlights, it's that most don't know how to properly adjust them.
