The i3's LED light output is a bit more yellow in color, whiter than 4300K Xeons, maybe 4700K? The F80's LED system seems to be right at 5000k. Pure white and just right IMO.
Well I have not had any coding done on mine. So the i3's LED was "better" for me before and after 25mph

I would sacrifice some brightness within 10 ft of me to see further and wider any day.
