Decision:

As an entrepreneur who values efficiency, I had high hopes for this gadget to eliminate distractions while driving. The reality is that it's a decent product—it does what it says on the tin, but with some hiccups. I appreciate that the courier called ahead for delivery, which made the process smooth. For the price, it's okay-ish, but not the flawless solution I was dreaming of. If you're someone who can tolerate minor imperfections, it might work for you, but I expected better reliability. Overall, it's functional but falls short of being incredible.

• Pros: I was incredibly excited about the automatic headlight feature, and it does work well for turning lights on and off without me lifting a finger, which is a huge relief during those sudden tunnel entries. The installation was straightforward, just as promised, and it fits perfectly with my vehicle, making it feel like a seamless addition. The ability to switch between high and low beams automatically is a nice touch, helping me avoid those awkward moments with other drivers.
• Cons: However, it doesn't always adjust as smoothly as I expected; sometimes there's a slight delay or it misjudges the lighting conditions, which can be a bit frustrating for a perfectionist like me. It's limited to specific car models, so if you don't have one of those, it's a no-go, and I wish it had a bit more versatility. The performance could be more consistent, as it occasionally requires manual overrides, which defeats the purpose of having it automatic.
