What's the best headlight color?
>>
>>14038711
yellow square foglights
white headlights
always
>>
whatever they use in lemans
those are fucking bright
>>
I'll prefer 6000K. Gives good power, and the white light works a lot better with the snow at winter, being carried quite a bit longer
>>
>>14038711
any colour thats light.
>>
isnt beam pattern more important?
>>
>>14038711

4300K is the absolute best visibility, period, end of discussion, this is not up for debate. People who think anything higher is better are the same people who claim you can see the difference between 60FPS and 100FPS.

I have 5500K Morimotos to match the color of the LEDs. Good compromise between function and form.

Yellow and dim. The Sylvania sealed beams you get at O'Reilly's Zone for $15 are the best.

Except you literally can. Most people don't have crts or fast enough lcds to display more than 60fps, but the faster the animation, the more frames you need to deceive your eyes into seeing smooth motion. Slower animation can get away with fewer frames, but very fast racing games and fps's can benefit. It's actually pretty easy to verify this if you record the same sequence at 60 and 100 fps and play them back in split-screen on a 100+ Hz monitor.

I've only been here since 2011, but the tripfags I remember because you cunts won't stop talking about them are Frosty, LPG, notamiata and 555-comeonnow guy. Literally cannot give a shit.

In the ideal world we'd all be driving around with 3000K for maximum night vision.
But because people are fucking retards who think more blue = more good, 4300K is the acceptable compromise. Any higher and you are reducing your own and other road users out-of-light vision, making you a retard.

4000K headlights, mad fat 2600-3000K foggies brah
>>
>>14038711
5000k
>>
If you use over 4K I actually want to snuff you out or shine a laser pointer in your eyes.
>>
>>14038711

Best at what?

Best for driving? Or best for blinding people?
>>
I'm debating getting new headlights in my 2003 truck. Annoying as shit when cars behind you make shadows in your headlights. Some of those lights look like brights head on...it's the worst. How bright can I go without being a douche?
>>
>>14040281

Aimed properly with clean cutoff lines?

Pretty bright, Anon.
