Now moving on to attempt LED low beams again.



Here is the thermography to see how hot they get running high beam.
I am still adding an additional heat sink to the back.



Looks like I am going to set the beam pattern for each one. The passenger side will be fairly easy. Back it out 3 to 4 mm, rotate the H4 about 45 degrees to the left that will put almost all of the glare off to the side of the road. Which is great, use that glare to light up beady little eyes belonging to animals that like to dart out into my way just as I get up really close to them and idiots that insist on walking on the road as opposed to the side walk and wear dark neutral colors at night.
Passenger side is practically done.

The drivers side is going to backed off, tilted and rotated. I have it worked out as to what the orientation needs to look like now just need to lock it in the housing.
