Calling all headlamp experts!!
A while back I installed a nice set of Hella E Code headlamps in my '66
Convertible. They are really great. However, the thought occurred to me
that when using the high beams, the low beam filament in the outer lamps is
switched off and the high beam filament is turned. Going on the theory that
more light is better light, why not leave the low filament burning and turn
on the high beam filament during high beam operation. I don't need to worry
about excessive load etc. as I've already installed relays and heavier
wiring. Is there any problem running both the high and low beam filaments
at the same time? I did a short term test in my garage and nothing blew up
etc.
