KC HiLiTES - Lighting Types Explained...

Fog Lights...

Conventional lights throw a broad beam containing both vertical and horizontal light. Unfortunately, the vertical light can project above the hood of the vehicle, which will illuminate and particles of rain, snow, dust, etc. that may be in front of the vehicle. When these particles are illuminated, a dangerous glare is created that dramatically reduces seeing ability by relecting light back into the drivers eyes (see illustrations to the right). The effectiveness of KC Fog Lights comes from the shape of the beam pattern which is very wide, but only a couple of feet high. This pattern does light the pathway close to the ground but doesn't light the airborne particles that are in the drivers line of sight. Fog lights are also a very helpful addition to headlights in clear weather conditions. They provide added lighting immediately in front of the vehicle as well as increased side or corner lighting.

Driving Lights...

Driving lights are designed to supplement your high beam headlights. Their candlepower (which is about twice that of your headlights), coupled with a rectangular beam pattern, produces a light pattern that reaches further than your OEM high beam headlights. They also provide wider side lighting to help see things that are near the roadway such as children or animals. The use of driving lights greatly reduces the chances of an animal vs. vehicle accident that are so prevalent in rural areas.

Long Range Lights...

Able to penetrate deep into the night, KC Long Range lights are the whitest, brightest available for automotive use. They range from 110,000 candlepower in the 55 watt halogen model, up to 740,000 candlepower in the 35 watt High Intensity Discharge (HID) lights. For off highway commercial, agricultural or racing applications only.
