I worked at night on my cybertruck installing things, I noticed that the interior lights are weaker than an Iphone flashlight.

You drop something on the floor, good luck finding it at night. LED lights are cheap, I wonder why CT doesn't have stronger interior lighting, is this a safety issue? I was expecting the overhead LED strip to fully illuminate, instead it has 2 LEDs that are pretty weak, IMHO.

I’m glad I’m not the only one who thinks the interior dome lights are weak. I can barely use it to see anything. Why in the world does the bar only the two lights on the side‽ Am I not using it right?

It's kind of a Tesla thing. I don't think that any of the vehicles really have bright interior lights. They are considered as ambient lighting.

Want more, there are lots of USB-C options.

I was curious about this also. I thought it'd be more like the x where you tap different points along the light bar/light housing and different LEDs turn on, but nope...

My old 2014 Model S had brighter than expected dome lights from what I remember. Perhaps Tesla didn’t account for the much larger interior of the CT compared to its other models?

Either way, I hope 3rd parties will release some good replacements that look OEM
