Hi beams made it brighter in the near ground than the low beams but again, didnt project as far.
Drive about 10 miles home, dark, 2 lane roads, good amount of oncoming traffic. ZERO hi beam flashes!
Point is, to the “new fangled” light haterz, it’s less about the lights and more about how you use them.
