Headlights on with engine running:
78% duty cycle; 90Hz
Headlights on with engine off:
0% duty cycle; 0Hz
(I would have thought always on would be 100% duty cycle. But, I guess it means there is no cycle to measure.)

The normal power to the headlights is pulse width modulated DC. It is modulated to send power to the headlights about 80% of a given time period. It is supposed to prolong bulb life without reducing light output.
But then, if you have something that describes it as having AC power, can you post it or a link to it?

Pulsating DC is direct current that turns on and off, but always has the same direction or polarity.
