My understanding on these bulbs is that they are th kind that blind you when a car is approaching you and this is very irritating if you are looking at them. I would not be surprised if they one day cause an accident or road rage. I would not subject other drivers to those bright lights. My solution is million candle power auxilliary lights on my bumper that can be turned on when needed.

I think Xenon - Krypton gas charged bulbs should be outlawed.
