rev up your engines, today I'm gonna talk about the future of car headlights, but
at least for me it's the present, it's called the bosla headlight it's an
interesting invention that just came out, now you might say hey I've seen LED
headlights what's new, well first this one's sealed inside glass, it's pretty
waterproof you're not gonna have problems with that, and it's got the whole system
in the wiring harness, including the resistor and everything, so it just plugs
in your car and you don't have to modify anything and it works correctly, the
problem with the cheaper LEDs is, a lot of times all you get is a bulb assembly
you screw it in, but it doesn't have the resistor, it can work strange with your
car, this thing is designed correctly for modern cars, you don't need to buy
resistors it's already included, you don't have to splice wiring, it just
plugs right in, but here's the coolest thing about it, although it's one bulb it
does four different things just by flipping your switch on and off, watch
this, you turn your headlights on normally and you get nice bright normal
headlights, on they go, but then when you turn them off and on a second time, you
can notice that they aren't quite as bright, they're a lower angstrom, then
when you click on one more time watch this, now they're even a lower angstrom
and look yellow and when you click them again, then they become flashing yellow
warning headlights, and if you turn the high beams on on top of it you get this
you'll be able to see while driving and have some really serious warning lights
now of course the company doesn't want to be sued, so it says that the yellow
flashing headlights are only to be used off-road in emergency situations, somebody
is shooting at you, or you want to get the
police to come because there's a real problem, turn those babies on people are
gonna notice it, now as far as I'm concerned the coolest thing about this
is, you don't have to modify anything it's one bulb and just by turning your
headlights on and off it activates the different aspects of it, and they're
simple to put in, you just twist your old headlights and take them out, just get
them out grab the tang here and unplug it, out it
comes, then plug the new one in, just snaps in that's it, then just push it in
and twist it and it's in place it's simple anybody can do it, and of
course you want to know how does it work they're LED lights and they have three
separate angstrom frequencies that they send light out with, and if you're
curious angstrom was a Swedish physicist in the 1800s and one angstrom that's
named after him of course, is one ten millionth of a millimetre, so we're
talking about really small distances of light waves, now the first setting is
6,500 angstroms, which is nice and bright for seeing best at night when it's clear
outside, now when you go to the second setting that's 4300 angstroms, it's made
especially for driving through snowy conditions,
it keeps the glare from coming off of the snowflakes and stuff, and the third
setting is three thousand angstroms which is a yellow color which is great
for bad weather, it cuts through it better and you don't get all the glare
coming up, and as I said before the fourth setting that's still the yellow
color, but it's flashing on and off as a warning, no one's gonna miss this at
night or even in the daytime, and if you curious here's what it looks like at
nighttime now I tried them out at night and really
like these night-vision shooting glasses I have out here, the yellow really makes
things pop better, especially if you get it older like me you need all the help
you can at night, and one of the things I like best about this is, it's all
controlled just by turning your headlight switch on and off, in some
areas where maybe the police don't like a particular color, or in your inspection
area you can't have different colors to get it inspected, you just turn them on
once and they're the regular white ones and they'll pass inspection that way, you
don't have to worry about keep swapping bulbs in and out if you want different
colors, this does it automatically and it will revert to the normal ones anytime
you want, and let's face it if you're coming up to a party or something you
got these lights going like that, hey you want to get attention to yourself
this is certainly gonna work, but of course more important is a safety aspect,
fog here in Houston, snow up north in Buffalo, if you can turn your headlights
on and off and adapt your headlights to whatever the driving condition is, you
can't beat that, and if you do get in a bad situation, you turn on those yellow
flashing headlights people are gonna notice, it could save your life who knows,
now this is a brand new product and here are all the different bulbs up that they have,
you check what your bulb has and see if they have one of these bulbs, you
can always pause the video there see if your numbers are in there, now it
is a brand new product and they keep upgrading it as time goes on, and as with
any new product there's bound to be a few glitches here and there, I read about
people getting them, they didn't work they had to send them back got another one
and it worked perfectly fine, since it's so brand, new you gotta expect something
like that, but it's killer technology, if you're thinking about making your
headlights a little bit safer and more interesting you might try one of these
bosla bullets, and since this is a mechanic Monday I'm giving away a set of these
and to have a chance to win just place a clean non offensive
comment on the YouTube comments below and a winner will be chosen randomly by
computer to get a pair of these cool bosla bullet led 4 function
headlights, so if you never want to miss another one of my new car repair videos,
remember to ring that Bell
