Hello guys, i am trying to understand what the difference between eco led and full.
Are eco led bulbs lower lumens leds or they are the same lumens level as the "full led" without the ability to adaptate ?

On my Skoda Scala the difference was visual, but also on the eco les the high beams are halogen not led, they also just don't seem as bright as my previous leon mk3.5 full leds

Hope that is some help

Sure, thanks.
So this add another possibility, meaning that the difference might be on the high beam and not the lumens level...

SEAT Leon uses Full LED dynamic headlights, with up to 900 lumens. MK3 has around 600 lumens, assumed that standard led will be below that as you have fewer LED segments available. Halogens are claimed to have 450 lumens

For the Leon, both high and low beams are LED.

Eco LED = 550 lumen
Full LED = 900 lumen

Oh, beaten by KoNG by just a fraction :LOL:

Thank you so much !!! Just out of curiosity where did you find this info ?, i have spend a lot of time googling and i wasn't able to find an official source.

I guess it's like the old school xenon, original 35w 3200lms (need washers) then they had the 25w ones 2000lms no need washers. I guess it's not all about the lumens as I didn't find my Ibiza's 32000lms lights noticeably brighter than the 'lower lumens' light of the Leon's, Volvo V40 or current Audi A3 LED headlights lights.

Ooh I think I got it now, the Eco LEDs are the the reflector headlights on trim levels below FR and Xcellence. The more powerful ones are the projector style headlights on the higher trims.

I'm coming from MK3 Leon pre-facelift and see noticeable different between the light for sure. Even the shape is much better with projector light 👍🏻
