Brights are already fucking annoying when you have some idiot who doesn't know how to turn them off. Now I get to let rich people shine lasers in my eyes?! And the government is worried about my handhelds?!

Somebody hold my beer

PS- obviously they aren't collimated but still. Uncollimated beams are no fun either.

You are a laser genius... :thinking: I think you could come up with an Epic way to retaliate ;)

Same thing here. Rather than fix their lights or aim them properly, they drive with high beams on even in well lit areas. It seems like a fad here. If they are in front, I can use my high beams against theirs. But if they are tailgating from behind, I use this.

3X PT54 at 7A each.

Not many details in that article. Too lazy to go digging for more. Again, hoping for active scanning :)

Not to good of an idea. Just sayin...

totally agree, they didn't invent anything new, all they did was shoot 405 or 445 at the phosphor, which is what LED's use, but instead of lasers there are diodes, don't see how this is innovative, directing LED's into "microfiber" type of glass to direct the light better would achieve the same effect, only drawback would be aesthetics, you'd see LED's, with lasers you just see a glowing line, i call BS on the tech until I see proper tests, its hard to believe they achieved anything, and they CANNOT call this laser headlights, it makes no sense to call it laser headlights as lasers only act like diodes, that is stupid even if there is a slight chance of being efficient, though who cares if cars recharge their batteries as they go anyway.

7500 bucks?

Having a drone flying over you with a bigass searchlight is probably the more economical option here :D

could you develope that idea for a vanguarde light to use on some remote roads. some places where there are no street lights this actually might work. let the drone fly ahead of you a few car leanths when needed and return when not. could work for boats as well. put a gps so it can follow the road and stay with you. give it a smart function to dim and dodge for oncoming vehicles. with the gps it should return to the base for tunnels and overpasses or other structures.
Im not a builder but you stumbled onto a great idea

Yeah, if only we had affordable drones that lift a kilogram payload and fly 130 km/h for a few hours ;)

If the affordable part goes out the window i suggest purchasing a helicopter as those usually come with pretty good lights and solve issues with traffic jams or lack of roads too :D
