A Game-Changer for Night Driving
As a seasoned Jeep enthusiast who regularly tackles off-road terrain and night trails, I know firsthand how crucial good lighting is. That’s why I was excited when Auxbeam reached out and asked me to test their 7" 60W Round Hi-Lo Beam LED Headlights with Atmosphere Function. Although this specific model is no longer available, my experience offers important takeaways for anyone looking to upgrade their headlights.
⚠️ Note: The model I reviewed is discontinued, but Auxbeam offers several similar LED headlight options that carry the same quality and performance.
Installation: Quick, Easy, and DIY-Friendly
One of the biggest wins with the Auxbeam headlights was how easy they were to install. With just basic tools and some patience, I had both headlights up and running within an hour. For Jeep owners who love a good DIY project, this upgrade is absolutely doable without professional help.

Performance Highlights: Why These LEDs Outshine the Rest
✔️ Outstanding Visibility at Night
After using these headlights consistently for over four months, the improvement in visibility was dramatic. Trails, road signs, and potential hazards became much easier to spot. Driving at night went from stressful to smooth and enjoyable.
✔️ Thoughtfully Balanced Beam Pattern
Many LED headlights struggle with beam focus, often blinding oncoming drivers. Not these. I never once had another driver flash their lights at me, indicating the beam pattern was well-engineered and road-safe.
✔️ Energy-Efficient Lighting
LED technology is naturally more efficient than halogen. These headlights reduced strain on my Jeep’s electrical system while delivering brighter output.
✔️ Built for the Trail
Durability matters when you're off-roading. These Auxbeam lights held up through rough weather, rocky trails, and muddy excursions with zero issues.

Headlight Flicker: The One Issue (and Fix)
After several months, I started experiencing flickering issues with the headlights. Initially, I thought the lights were faulty and replaced them. Later, I discovered the actual fix: hard-wiring them directly to the Jeep’s electrical system. Once I did that, the flicker stopped entirely.
Unfortunately, by the time I figured this out, the original model was no longer available. I truly miss those Auxbeam headlights—they outperformed the replacement ones I use now.
