Are the high and low beams of the Tianlong VL integrated?
2 Answers
The Tianlong VL features integrated high and low beam headlights. The integrated headlights adopt an irregular design style, which forms a good visual harmony with the fog lights below. Working principle of integrated high/low beam: By using a shutter to block part of the high beam, it creates the low beam. Controlling the shutter to fully open or partially block the light beam allows both high and low beams to function, which also contributes to energy efficiency and environmental protection from another perspective. The price of integrated projection headlights is approximately 30% higher than that of conventional separate halogen lights. Conventional headlights: Most conventional headlights use separate reflector-type high and low beams without lenses.
From my years of driving experience, the Tianlong VL series vehicles typically feature an integrated design for high and low beams. This means a single bulb can switch functions, such as through changes in the bulb's internal filament or circuitry, avoiding the hassle of frequent bulb replacements and making driving more convenient, especially at night when you just need to turn the switch. However, it's important to regularly check if the lamp socket contact is in good condition. Otherwise, vibrations can easily cause poor contact or blown fuses, affecting brightness and even safety. It's recommended to have it inspected at a repair shop every six months. After all, if the integrated light fails, the entire headlight assembly needs to be replaced, which can be more costly.
