Zongshen RX3 LED Headlight Review
Yesterday my parcel arrived from Taobao. All the items I ordered were present, in excellent condition, including the upgraded, LED headlight for the RX3.
As with the stock headlight, the upgraded headlight has LED lights which surround the headlight. In addition, the upgraded headlight has two LEDs on top which provide the high beam, and one LED on the bottom, which provides the low beam. The new headlight employs three lenses, one over each LED, which focus, and project the light beams. I transferred my turn signals from the stock headlight to the LED headlight, and installed it on my RX3. Then I went for a ride as I awaited nightfall to properly test the headlight. Traveling one of my favorite roads, I stopped to take some photographs of the headlight in the daytime, from approximately 40 feet in front of the bike. Because of the headlight lenses, the light patterns are very focused. The first photograph was taken from a standing position, with the headlight set to high beam. The next photograph was taken from a kneeling position, with the headlight set to high beam. As you can see, the light is more intense inside the focused beam. The last photograph shows the low beam, taken from a kneeling position. This pattern is wider, and tilted much lower to the ground; it has a distinct horizontal cutoff. The headlight has European E4 approval. I can not find any DOT marking on the headlight. http://www.danielsternlighting.com/t...des/codes.html http://trace.me/techdocs/TraceME%20e4-03-2033.pdf
