I'd seen the ones in Criggie's answer as long as 15 years ago; the ones I've seen are quite dim, and not going to as useful as direct light from multiple bright LEDS. | |

| Sep 3, 2017 at 19:12 | comment | added | ojs | Cars are required to have lights almost everywhere, and you'll need quite powerful light to beat a reflector reflecting even low beams. But of course you can find the product if you bother to search at all. | |
