2014+ T4R Tri-LED Projector / Sequential Headlights

[MadeInMaine]

smoker's get smoke breaks so I do the same except instead of smoking I get a 10-15 minute walk in every few hours

Also, I'm a huge proponent of "work to live" not "live to work". Can't imagine I'll be laying on my death bed saying "man I wish I would have worked more".

Don't get me wrong... I love my job. I work in an ER/Trauma for the military.

But breaks like that? HA . thats funny. Some days I don't pee until 8hrs into my 13hr shift because I don't have time to leave the patients. Lunch break? maybe just 5 minutes of shovelling food in at the nurse station.

Well, more power to you for doing the stuff people like me and others don't have the guts for but tend to take for granted :cheers:

Pro tip: find a bush to pee in while your partner sews up the patient! jk

Pro-er tip: Why do catheters just have to be for patients?

You are way smarter than me! Can't believe I didn't even think of that.

So far I like them. Went with the solid turn signals. Will take more pictures when it gets dark tonight.

So I just talked to Mike at Xenon and they said they will be correcting the lighting issue in upcoming production. Looking forward to it! I'll buy them again.

Hmm interesting, especially since XenonDepot on here basically said that's just how the light pattern is with these kinds of lights along with the intensity plot that was posted.

If it's truly a "deficiency" that gets fixed in a later production run, kinda sucks to be screwed as what essentially amounts to being a beta tester.

Oh well, I'll be interested to see if anything actually changes in the later production run. Right now I'm fine with them as I haven't encountered any issues where the lights don't perform like they're supposed to. Granted, it's hard to drive at night with the sun going down so late. Winter in the PNW will be the real test.

I've got a question. I really do want to buy another set but have been thinking. If for some dumb luck the new batch has issues, can you ask Morimoto if they will give full refund including return shipping and comp us for our trouble?
Being a beta tester with bad results cost me time for install/ aiming correctly, test driving etc and a hundred to ship them back. not a pleasant experience. I know Xenon has to be less than thrilled as you are just the middle man!

For those sending them back, Paypal will reimburse 30 bucks of your return shipping

If they are going to fix the issue on upcoming versions, I will probably contact XD and send mine back. I opened only one headlight to take a look. I'm currently running their HID's for low beams, their LED's for DRL/ high beam and the Morimoto fogs...I'm happy with that setup now. If the newer versions are fixed, I'll definitely buy a set

You mean they didn't pay for return shipping?? That's just bad business practice! I may just have to sell them to someone on here

If you go that path, PM me please. I have an open PM to XD as well for a potential sale of a returned set. Coming from Audi Bixenons, the Morimoto LED low beams aren't cutting it.

can you clarify at what Mike at Xenon said would be corrected?

[MENTION=12905]XenonDepot[/MENTION]
can you confirm..

if Xenondepot acknowledges a lighting issue.. i'm sending mine back.

Gore warning.....







I had a patient in the ER... long-distance truck driver that came in with the worst UTI I've ever seen. Basically pissing mayo.


Cause? Reused the same catheter for multiple weeks, thought washing it off was fine....

Guess I won't be eating breakfast this morning.

Guys - sorry for any confusion here - but for the reasons we explained earlier, there are currently no intentions (that we are aware of) to release any "updated" version of the lights with a different light output. The launch inventory represents the finalized product, and as soon as more inventory arrives, they will all share the exact same beam pattern. Those lights are already in full production & will be shipped to us in the next couple weeks. It would take many months to completely overhaul the optics used inside the headlights between the engineering & tooling. While some customers have voiced complaints about the foreground light, it's only about 10% of the current user base, not nearly enough to warrant an overhaul like that.

Just 10%? That seems low based on the number of customers that have stated they have returned their headlights both here and on other forums.

There has been rumor that a fix for the issues of these lights is in the works, thanks for confirming that isn't the case.

 

[16RedRunner]

So only 10% of users voiced complaints seems like more than that to me.Glad I wasn't a thousand dollar plus test dummy for these.

 

[Dr. Monkeypants]

XD/Morimoto could be the only company I've ever heard of that thinks a 10% initial rejection rate is perfectly reasonable.

Most companies would be losing their mind getting a proper fix in place ASAFP if they had that kind of failure on their hands

There were only a handful of regulars throughout this thread expressing interest yet they sold out of the initial run in a few hours so I'm assuming they had a good amount of buyers that don't exist on t4r.org

I believe it's the typical internet phenomenon of only the upset people posting their opinions and the happy people getting on with their day. It seems like a majority on the internet when it's really just an incredibly vocal minority.

Sure, and I certainly understand that. Through this forum and another there are 10 people that have said they sent theirs back. That's over 10%.

It really doesn't matter to me. Based on what I have read I have no intentions of buying these, just pointing out that 10% (while pretty high percentage) seems quite low based on internet grumblings and personal stories that have been shared. I'll save my money and upgrade my lights (when the time comes) from Kustom54 or Lightwerkz.

you all really think all the guys on Instagram taking pics of these lights care about light output?
