    Great job with the review, very comprehensive!

    Curious as to how the MM vs G4 will perform in actual rain/snow conditions. I have the white MM’s right now but am partial to the Amber G4’s. I like how the output looks and The warranty. I am sure it would be tough to get a replacement lamp for the MM if something were to happen due to the limited production.

    If you have any outputs shots of them
    In rain/snow I am sure some would be interested in seeing.

    It's actually hard to see because the video just wasn't picking it up. But we had flurries , ditch lights and light bars going. Even with the white balance cranked, you can still see how the fogs appear .

    And as always , they're brighter In person than they are on the screen. Relative to the street fog spectrum.

    The main thing here is to realize that we heavily rely on our distribution/our dealers. We generally don't want to undercut them on pricing as we don't want to sour any relationships just so that we can make a few extra bucks. But our dealers offer many advantages to customers, so we want to keep them happy too! And by keeping them happy, they're often willing to sell the product at a price lower than what we have on our website, which is great for you all. Plus, if it is a brick-and-mortar store then you can often times go into the store and pick up the product and compare it with others directly.

    Good deal! Good of a business to not want to undercut it's dealers. I wish there were more brick and mortar stores still around
