Anybody had any bother with the hella FF50 with regard to cracked housings?

Mine are on the second bike so have done over 70K miles I have had to weld the mounting brackets on both lights at some stage but the housings have been ok.

What do you want them to do?

The cheap Chinese H5/H7 pencil beam LEDs are mega powerful as main beam lights and cost peanuts. Some models include a daylight halo ring.
You Tube shows how to disable the silly strobe feature.

ive tried it last night and aimed the HID to just below the point where it may offend people, then the main beam cyclops is what it is.The oe fogs running h7 halogen bulbs are yellowy but fill in quite well.Its the main beam im after improving, even with the cyclops the main beam is like a work light with no real definition.Im not sure what the oe fogs are like with HID.

I have BMW Led fogs, they are alright for short range wide spread light or as daylight running lights and that is about it.
I think the halogen yellow light would be better in fog but these stock led`s came on the bike..
About the same goes for the LED headlights, good to be seen but not for distance.
As soon as I can find an LED spot that outperforms the FF50`s that is the way I will go but until then its FF50`s for distance.
