    Certain cars use PWM to dim the hi-beams. Much more power-efficient and safer than the resistor-based ones (which generates unnecessary heat).

    US and Canadian 8th Gen Civics uses PWM on their DRLs, which is part of the MICU's function. I wonder if the local FDs have this feature already and are just factory-disabled (ie. missing fuse), since local traffic laws does not require DRL.

    I installed DRL on my CRV. ok naman. wala naman glare. though most people mistook it as foglamps. pero ang ok dito automatic siya nag on once the engine starts. so cool feature siya. then pag nag turn on ako ng parklight the light goes dimmer..... it also has a feature na pag nag run signal ka mag blink yung drl parang blinker so dinisable ko baka pagkamalan blinker hehehe mahuli pa ako.....

    ok siya kasi once you enter like dark areas like parking lots, tunnel diba maskita agad yung sasakyan no need to switch on your lights. and mahina lang naman siya kumain ng koryente

    yes!

    marami drivers sa pinas kahit medyo gloomy na, hindi pa rin gumagamit ng ilaw... kahit parklight man lang.

    kaya ba niya ang init ng makina? di ba mabibiyak after many days use? di ba magfafade or maninilaw ang crystal glass/plastic nito?

    I own a small ride and frankly mahirap ako makita ng malalaking sasakyan. So I installed a DRL (with switch). Kapag sobrang sikat ang araw eh pinapatay ko na.
