Looks like they spent the effort for a better design, better parts, and it costs more $$. The cheap stuff on Amazon and eBay don’t do this.

I think I read somewhere that it took them a few versions to get the DRL right, but some folks still detect a slight flicker. Maybe someone can chime in on their experiences.
I had the XD high beams (before I learned that drop-in LED bulbs suck and went back to H9/9011 halogen bulbs). Well, they suck less for high beams as the focal point is not as critical in an open-pattern reflector. Anyway, the PWM drivers worked great as DRLs. They had a slight pulse to them, I'd compare it to a fluorescent hum more than a flicker. I can't say how they work for a series/voltage drop setup on the 21+ Pro/Limited headlights.
