We know from looking at cars every day that there are headlights, taillights, fog lights, and so on in front and behind the car. These lights not only decorate beautifully and dazzle us, but also provide sufficient lighting for our nighttime travel, like the "eyes" in the dark of a car. Of course, the function of the headlights is not only to illuminate at night, but also to warn others and other functions. How much do we know about this frequently used yet easily overlooked component in the car? Let's discuss together about car lighting.
First, let's take a look at the functions and uses of various car lighting fixtures.
① The dual headlights in front of the car. These should be the bright eyes of a car. We mainly rely on him to provide light for nighttime driving. So the first thing is to ensure that his brightness is sufficient. Previously, halogen headlights were commonly used in vehicles, but in recent years, more and more vehicles have been equipped with hernia lights, which are characterized by higher brightness and longer service life. And the light source is similar to sunlight, which also has a good protective effect on human eyes.
② The dual rear lights at the rear of the car. The pair of lights located at the rear of the car are not intended to illuminate the driver of the car, but mainly serve as a warning to vehicles behind them during deceleration, braking, and other situations, reminding them to slow down and avoid rear end collisions. Most current car models use LED tail lights, which naturally have better effects.
③ The fog lights of a car. Fog lights are actually used less frequently and are usually only used in special weather conditions such as rain and fog. In these low visibility weather conditions, the range, distance, and penetration of other vehicle lights are limited. And fog lights have strong penetration, not only providing effective lighting, but also allowing others to detect your vehicle early and avoid accidents. Although the penetration effect of hernia lamps has also been greatly enhanced, they are still not as obvious as fog lamps. Some vehicles now have fog lights removed after being downsized, which the editor thinks is a very unreliable approach.
④ Lights for reversing vehicles. Everyone knows that the lighting effect of the front headlights is good when driving at night, but when encountering situations of reversing at night, it becomes awkward. The lights at the rear of the car are relatively weak and cannot provide good lighting. Therefore, some drivers have installed this type of rear lighting, which can provide brighter light.
