I may have found the problem!

As I thought I had the intelligent lighting, I have always had my light switch on AUTO, though why they would put an auto on a FIXED lighting system I don't know, but when facing a wall,
I found that on auto in dark conditions the lights go dim, but when I switched them manually to dipped the lights go higher and brighter?
I haven't tried them out at night yet so fingers crossed I will have solved the problem.

I have Halogens and I agree that they are not very good. High beams are good, but low beams are so so, slightly better than ancient sealed beams that were commonly used in the U.S.
