Ifg your bike running on battery be careful about "Battery Drainage"

There shouldn't be any such issues, Headlight will be ON only when the engine is ON. Battery drainage issue should not come for Pulsar 180 DTSi because headlight is not directly powered by battery.

Exp. guys please advice ...

True, no effects what so ever on the battery

what abt avenger then?

Just now I took a test ride with new Crystal Vision and it proved far better compared to my older 35W. But not 100 % satisfied about the reach of light while riding @ 100

, may be because the focus of the headlight is nearer. I may need to focus it further away

Headlight Leveling option should be available in bikes also as it is available in Cars now a days. I think leveling head lamp in P180 with dome visor is a real headache. I will have to fix it myself

Switch to round headlamp, that is what majority of the Delhi DTSi owners who have switched to Avenger coil plate, have done!

I bought this new headlight dome visor very recently

It would be very hard for me to throw it away
