SUPERPHARE MARCHAL "STRILUX" A fast car is safe in the hands of an experienced driver whose vision has become trained to cover an area well ahead of the moving vehicle. No "Dipping Reflectors" but both headlamps always on, either with the main driving beam or with the anti-dazzle beam when passing traffic. 'STRILUX' or 'SECTIONAL REFLECTORS' are the equivalent of MULTIPLE REFLECTORS. They make it possible for BOTH FILAMENTS of a double filament bulb to be in TRUE FOCUS with superimposed reflecting surfaces. The anti-dazzle beam carries a long way ahead so that speed can be maintained when changing over from the main driving light. The wide sections at the periphery of the reflector widen the beam in the distance, while a crystal diffuser in front of the bulb ensures side illumination in the vicinity.
