Could you wire your high and low beams together?

This is just an idea... but do yall know how if you pull you light lever back half way between dim and how you flash your lights at someone, then both your highs and lows are shining? is there a way you could wire them together so that when you put your lights on bright it would shine both beams?

do you think it would make your bulbs burn out quicker?

That function is only for short term use to flash someone. If you have both filaments on, the bulb life will drop drastically.

i have been able to balance the low / high, yu can practise, and its easy to just push it forward enuff to do it. i did it, and i stopped, cuz my left bulb burnt out after a few weeks, so, it does wear em out alot faster.
but, its brighter!
