C1 high beams generator
I cannot believe someone flashed me their brights when we were driving at night on the highway. I always leave the brights on since its not really that bright. Its not like I converted it to LEDs. I probably should convert the lights to LEDs since it would be safer. Today's cars are extremely bright compared a corvette running off an old generator.

I understand your logic, when dealing with our weaker lights.
But if I saw 4 separate & horizontal light beams coming at me, I would probably flash you too.

Most old school folks like me, see four headlights and assume high beams, regardless of brightness.
