The purpose of the manual focus was to throw the original 21 CP beam as far forward as possible. As Brent in TN points out, precise focus becomes less relevant with higher intensity bulbs.

The importance of proper low-beam angle and intensity becomes apparent when you encounter dense fog. Also I wonder how the different color temperatures (light frequencies) affect the amount of light reflected back into your eyes in fog.


It looks like adjusting the focus, according to the instructions, is moving the assembly back or forwards in the reflector receiver and clamping it in place with the small hose clamp.


Would be nice if there was some one currently using these that could give a report on them.
