Abstract: Synopsis: This study examines the amount of heat generated by 45W halogen and LED motorcycle headlight bulbs under normal riding circumstances. The study is being carried out in accordance with Notification No. G.S.R. 188(E), dated February 22, 2016, which outlines India's All Time Headlight-On (AHO) mandate. This study compares the thermal energy produced by 12V halogen and LED headlights with daily travel of 1 hour. It also covers the effects of AHO on traffic safety, how LED technology lowers heat dissipation, and the environmental effects of AHO, especially in relation to carbon emissions.
