In any case, front LED fog lights are not standard car equipment, many cars are designed without fog lights, and now some people will retrofit fog lights as decorative lights. Fog lights are only really useful in a few special situations. In fact, fog lights are specifically designed for use in severe weather and other conditions where visibility is severely reduced by mist, fog or even sand in the air.
What are LED fog lights?
LED Fog lights are a type of car headlights that are mounted on the front or rear of the vehicle. Front LED fog lamps are usually located below the main beam headlights and emit a strip beam. LED Fog lights emit light that penetrates fog to improve the driver's visibility in inclement weather such as rain, snow or fog. LED Fog light beams are usually designed to have a sharp cutoff at the top, and the actual lights are usually mounted lower and aimed at the ground at a sharp angle.
The color temperature of the fog lights is yellow and white.
The difference between LED fog lamps and ordinary headlights
LED Fog lights and high beams are completely separate, with each light having its own assembly. You'll find headlights on every car on the road, while LED fog lights are only available as an upgrade on many models. When the car is started, the high beams are usually turned on first. Alternatively, the LED fog lights need to be manually activated before they can start working.
When to Use LED Fog Lights?
You can use fog lights in a variety of low-visibility conditions, including fog, heavy rain, and sandstorms. Using dipped headlights or high beams in these conditions can make visibility worse because of their position so that light bounces back to the driver, especially for high beams (never use high beams when driving in fog!). However, they are not designed for high speed driving.
Fog lamps are positioned low and emit light to cover the surface area beneath the fog, giving you a clear view of obstacles or other vehicles ahead.
Are they worth having? If you live in a climate with unpredictable weather, purchasing a vehicle with front and/or rear fog lights will allow you to drive your vehicle at all times without worrying about reduced visibility.
Am I randomly turning on my LED fog lights?
Fog lights cannot be turned on casually. If the lights are turned on under normal driving conditions, it may cause blind spots in the vision of oncoming drivers or cause eye irritation.
When do LED car fog lights turn on?
Car fog lights are used in foggy or rainy days when the visibility is greatly affected by the weather. The premise of turning on the fog lights is to turn on the lights of the vehicle, and then press the fog lights. Fog lights are the light signals used in rainy and foggy weather. Fog lamps are installed on the front and rear of the car, and are used to illuminate the road when driving in rainy and foggy weather, and remind the front and rear vehicles to keep the distance between them. The visibility of vehicle headlights is generally only within 30 to 50 meters, while the visibility of fog lights reaches about 100 meters. Fog lights are used when there is heavy rain, and the windshield is covered with water, resulting in blurred vision and unclear distance between the front and rear vehicles. At this time, you can turn on the fog lights to remind other cars to avoid collisions.
Can the front and rear fog lights be turned on together?
Yes, the front and rear fog lights of the car can be turned on at the same time; at the same time, the front and rear fog lights of the car are used to improve the visibility of the vehicle under conditions such as fog, rain, snow, dust, etc., thereby increasing safety; but in use When using fog lights, observe the following points:
1. Use fog lights according to road signs and traffic regulations, and do not use them in normal weather or in a state of good sight;
2. When using fog lights, choose the appropriate brightness and light angle according to the road conditions, weather and other actual conditions
3. When using fog lights, you should pay attention to the changes in the driving environment at any time. If you can see the road conditions ahead, you should turn them off in time;
4. Fog lights cannot replace other lights of the vehicle, such as front and rear headlights, width indicator lights, etc. should be kept in normal use.
Why do some cars not have fog lights?
The function of fog lights is mainly due to its strong penetration, which can be seen more clearly by the outside world in the fog. Now most models have used LED daytime running lights. Although the penetrability of LED light sources is not as good as that of fog lights, they are brighter and can also play a warning role. Therefore, independent fog lights have been cancelled. Therefore, it is not that canceling the front fog lamps is necessarily a reduction. For example, the Audi A3 is equipped with front fog lamps, but the A8L is not equipped with front fog lamps because it is equipped with the latest LED headlights. Most of the independent front fog lights are placed on the lower part of the front bumper, which often destroys the integrity of the bumper shape. Therefore, many car companies have canceled the front fog lights in order to improve the design of the bumper, and replaced them with vents. , to dissipate heat for the front wheel brake disc, which can not only improve the aesthetics, but also improve safety. For example, Lexus LS500 is a typical example, the front face looks very sharp.
