"International regulators, primarily in Europe, are struggling to balance the potential safety benefit offered by DRL with the increased fuel consumption due to their use"

I think that is basically where we are at too. I had put a couple inexpensive warm white LED clusters on my bike but they didn't last. I will probably try again with more LEDS, and a regulator this time

I do feel like I'm pressing my luck every time I pass a cop with the headlight off, less so when I have auxiliary LED lighting, but it still not a guarantee of an equipment related ticket.
