It uses a dense array of Z‑Knight chips, multi‑layer cooling, and built‑in decoding to improve light output and fitment compatibility while minimizing heat and electrical errors. These lights are intended for auxiliary, fog, or offroad use — not for DRL operation — and include a two‑year warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does the Q40 improve brightness and beam quality?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Q40 uses 64 Z‑Knight LED chips with ultra‑tight 0.03‑inch spacing to create a concentrated, 6,500K white beam.
