Mondeo Neutral Newbie June 23, 2002 Share June 23, 2002 The 55W halogen reverse lights are ok, since reverse lights are activated for short moments only so the additional heat won't be a disadvantaging factor. For auto cars, you'll need to depress the brakes at a traffic lights, so it can get pretty hot! Some JB cars have done that reverse light with brake light, whenever depress the brake, reserve light also activated. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madarmour Neutral Newbie June 23, 2002 Share June 23, 2002 Act, i thot LED were more robust in relation to normal bulbs??? Same theory, I normally put the handbrk on at traffic lights, instead of placing foot on brake. See ya later, going to test cars You're right, LED's are more long lasting, consumes less energy and runs much cooler than tungsten bulbs! Unfortunately, my brake lights is the latter. So what cars did you test drive! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, these ppl are funny ppl who do things to confuse other drivers, thinking it's a cool thing to do! I think it happens on both sides of the causeway.

Mike, it's the reverse lights and not the brake lights that can be upgraded to 55W halogen I'm discussing with Luke. The LEDs for brake, signal and dim lights are low wattage and generate minimal heat. I'm still looking out for them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yongwd 1st Gear June 23, 2002 Share June 23, 2002 reminds me today I saw some of the TIBs bus with LED brake and signal lamp. (not the 3rd brake lamp) It is really dim especially on a sunny afternoon. Keep a look out, I think u will feel the same. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yongwd 1st Gear June 23, 2002 Share June 23, 2002 Hmmm, u notice the traffic lights uses clear cover whereas the TIBS buses, they dont. Those bright traffic lights LEDs do stand out under direct sunlight, but those TIBS buses, I cant even see them light up under some daylight condition. BTW, only some of them, especially those benz standard length bus. LEDs that are too dim????
