By the way when you make adjustments (up-down,left-right) on the first scale these pass automatically in the high beam and vice versa of every scale needs separate adjustment?

Well no its combined since its h4

I will try tonight to take some photos from the pattern of my Led bulbs, would be dark in a basement.

This is why you should NOT install LED lights in reflectors and lens designed for halogen bulbs.

Watch till the end this honest review.

 

I call bull****, 

This photo should suffice, either way a reflector will blind you. So just drop the led and their aligment.

Maybe from 1.3% to 1.5% downwards and call it good. 

Here are my leds and my aligment which I say looks preety damn good. 

I found an empty parking lot at the university and I sat down with a tape measure and aligned them. 

I took some pictures yesterday, my (Led bulb) light pattern is a disaster and i have to make corrections.

I will post tomorrow some pictures (now i am on the smartphone) to see the "mess". 

 

Here we have some idiots which install cheap chinese from Ali-ebay Xenon-kits not only in cars but in scooters too and the result is catastrophic.

Their beam aims so hi like an Anti-aircraft projector, instead of the road it aims even 2 meters higher than asphalt level and those morons think that ''i have a bright light so i can see better at night''.

From the entire video you decided to take the part where the author mentioned repeatedly that his experiment about the incoming cars was NOT scientific...

You have clearly missed his point. Although the main part of the light beam apparently has the correct pattern, a lot of unwanted light is reflected upwards. I am talking about meters of unwanted reflections, not centimeters that might be corrected from the headlight knobs.

@Thefeliciahacker your light pattern isn't like this but more ''focused'' in the centre, am i wrong?

 

You are right the left headlight points a bit inwards deliberately to reduce glare 

That's my Led buld light pattern, Left-Right side.

I am not satisfied.

@Papez you have stock headlight bulbs? 

Your light pattern how much different is compared to mine?

I know that mine is not good..

I have found these bulbs but they say it's Off-Road

I am worry for the factory bulb plugs, some say it's dangerous due to overheat.

for good reason

 

I don't want to make experiments with them.

Your bulbs are factory, those with yellowish colour around 3100 K?

I am not happy with the pattern of mine

https://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/83783-skoda-felicia-headlight-adjustment/?do=findComment&comment=5820348

 

maybe i have them too high and the pattern spreads more than it should be or ti's the bulb-desigh fault.

Cheap LEDs will never have good pattern. The reflector is designed for filament as the light source, si that's where's its focal point (line?) Anything outside this area will mess up the beam pattern. And cheap LED bulbs just use generic LED chips that somewhat reach desired light output, but that requires much larger area.

 

That's what's different in "legal" LED replacements, they use specific technology that's able to get closer to halogen filament shape and light output (part of the reason why they are so expensive, besides brand). However, not the same, which is why they still need to be certified for each vehicle individually. 

 

Btw, Osram recently released gen2 of their H7 LEDs, which has wider range of certified cars, maybe they'll have new version of H4 aswell.

1500Lm is pathetic, Chinese brands were getting those figures back in 2015

we see HALOGEN VS OSRAM LED VS MY LED.
I call bull****, even the very expensive osram is a mess in a reflector headlight,

So I much rather spend 10 euros instead of 150 euros
