I have the JW Speaker 8700 Evo 2, and do not have this issue.

Good possibility, my day maker is head and shoulders better than the previous light ( halogen) for night riding.

Default Daylight!

I agree with jeffro09 , make sure the light is aimed properly. I have the HD Daymaker and it’s much better than the stock halogen. I did adjust it a few times to get the best visibility. Welcome to the club.
