The Diode Dynamics SL2 Pro LED replacement bulb uses a proprietary technology called Thermal Separation Technology (TST) to push LED performance further than traditional designs. Here's what makes TST different and why it matters for output and longevity.

Application Notice: LED bulbs are legal in the USA for fog light use only. Not compliant with DOT/FMVSS108 and not street legal in the USA for headlights. Legal for off-road use. International legality varies by country. This regulation applies to all LED bulb brands.
What Is Thermal Separation Technology?
Traditional LED chips have their electrical connections on the bottom, which limits the surface area available for heat dissipation. TST LEDs flip this by placing the electrical connections on top. That means the entire bottom surface of the LED chip is dedicated to channeling thermal energy away from the LED.
The result is lower thermal resistance, which allows the SL2 Pro to run at higher power levels than traditional LED bulbs while maintaining proper optical focus. More power with better heat management means higher sustained output over the life of the bulb.
