Again, you're missing my point entirely.
No I understand completely. You are ignorant of the tech and spent a lot of money on something that's vanity rather than a clear cut upgrade, and want to defend that position while selectively ignoring the downsides.
It is insane not to accept the truth about trade offs with any change like this. There are pros and cons. You can't wish the cons away with any amount of excessive spending.
It's got nothing to do with agreeing or disagreeing...it's about posting relevant information, which you provided none.
You need to read more carefully. I did in fact, provide multiple points of relevant information. Would you care to re-read this topic? If I have to go back and do it point by point, you are going to look very deceptive. I posted, reasons, and alternatives, both relevant to the goal. If you think the goal is just "change bulbs to LED no matter what reason or cost or outcome", that is delusional.
Ask yourself this...did you, in fact, answer his actual question? Nope, you decided to be the "get off my lawn" guy and show your disapproval of his modification by looking smart (which I'm now having my doubts) and posting just for the sake of posting. You're not the only one on here that does that...posting nonsensical responses that never really help anybody to simply boost your ego.
This is laughable. I have no ego improvement by spending my time to provide alternate solutions. This is like my going back to rudimentary electronic components that I find boring except for this nonsense you wrote. LEDs are very simple to implement correctly, opposed to trying to make most light as cheap as possible without regard for the result. It is not nonsensical at all to show that you can get a better result for far less money and that spending too little time or money may result in a worse outcome than the stock bulbs.
I don't have to "look smart", just provide info and let people decide for themselves what to do. More info is a good thing, trying to censor and suppress info is not. You utterly fail at any rational discussion where everyone participates instead of just some pretend-bully. That attitude does not work well. Suppression of information is not tolerable.
And the few times I post here, I rarely get disagreed with, as I know what I'm talking about.
That does not seem likely at all or else you wouldn't have whined about it already. "I know what I'm talking about" is ego. If you are right, then you can accept dissenting points of view without trying to argue that people shouldn't express them.
And if I don't, I just keep my mouth shut.
No, you don't. You clearly don't have the knowledge about LEDs that I did 20 years ago and kept up on and developed solutions, and researched available products, and ultimately your solution is just spend a lot more money and hope you weren't robbed, and yet you still end up with a poor result from a cold color temperature, low CRI product.
You really don't get it do you? I did not write what I did on a whim. It was based on (obviously) far more experience in LED lighting than you have. Regardless, if you choose to ignore that, and live in ignorant bliss, then your happiness is most important to you. At the same time, that vanity does not make it reasonable to put blinders on and pretend that everyone else should ignore the details.
It's not rocket science. I suggest you stick to the "Keep your car stock" section of the forum, and leave this modding business to the grown folks. Check yourself, buddy.
Right back atcha...
You are an ignorant person who pretends that money buys knowledge. It only does if you study that in school. Otherwise, I am more than willing to go head to head with you arguing about led efficiency, lifespan, heat, color temperature, CRI, pretty much EVERY aspect of LED lighting then let's see who knows what.
You should stick to things you know. Your solution as posted previously is a crap result compared to what I could achieve for a fraction of the cost. If you don't want to spend the time thinking about it, that's the normal consumer way to pay someone else to do that for you, but to rebel against info out of vanity and argue against it, is madness.
I want you to spend a few months learning and testing and come back and tell me what you learned. It won't bring you up to speed but at least you will probably have some inkling what I'm talking about.
