Okay good stuff.
I'm not totally sold on the yellow is better idea. I think it's mostly a myth, although there is science behind the fact that selective yellow light (removing the blue/violet light from the output spectrum by filtering or some other means) can reduce optical strain. Yellow light doesn't actually penetrate fog better, nor does it reflect less off the fog droplets as is commonly thought (this could only be the case if the fog droplets were smaller than the size of the light wavelength, which of course is not the case - the droplets are many times larger). It just might make your eyes strain a little less, although that is subjective and I don't know of any scientific study to prove that.
Science aside, I opted to typically use my yellow fog lights to see better rather than high beams (far far brighter).
