Re: wiki, I reckon it's a pretty good resource, people are pretty quick to correct in-accuracies

Both lenses on my Fyrlyts cracked in a wierd looking radial pattern around the centre shortly after I installed them too. But as soon as I let Paul know about this, I had two new replacement lenses a couple of days later at no cost to me. The new lenses have now been in for well over a year, with no further problems. From what Paul told me, they did have an issue with an earlier batch of lenses.

Not knocking wiki as a resource - it more than likely provides very accurate information, which may or may not be relevant to the topic being discussed. My point is that I'd much rather rely on my own first hand experience and direct comparison of different types of light than be swayed by techno-babble, regardless of where it is sourced from.

But everyone's experience is likely to be different from others. My wife absolutely hates both HID and LED (especially on vehicles coming towards her as she can't see past them) - whereas bright lights coming towards me don't really bother me at all.

Interesting thing I noticed on this topic. Many moons ago, I found that using an issue red-filtered army torch, whilst playing cards in the back of a Mark, the markings on the hearts and diamonds cards were impossible to see.

As far as the types of lights go, I found hid lights to be very tiring, but good for long distance light. Led lights are great for close vision.

My current setup is a Traxide headlight harness, and a lightbar. Now that I'm not driving for a living anymore, I prefer not to travel at night, but if I have to, I do just what people living in the bush have done for years, if you can't see clearly, slow down!

A concoction of Deep Heat, Tabasco sauce and Parade gloss boot polish applied topically should see results

Bah ha ha ha OUCH❗️

I have actually had both those experiences before, the deep heat applied after a shower on a hamstring injury I should have put my jocks on first

The other is the hot sauce I bought from Vegas, it's called Death Sauce. A tear drop of this stuff is enough to spoil any food. I put some on a sandwich for lunch and there was residue around the lid which I got on my fingers when putting the lid back on, after lunch went for a whiz (should have washed my hands first) and it was the most excruciating pain I have ever felt, I reckon a tube of deep heat applied would have been a relief

There is a reason why this bottle is packaged in a coffin ❗️
