yeah, these lights are stupid proof. i'm not sure exactly when they come on, but i do know that i can put in at least another 60 miles or so on the car when it first comes on. my fill-ups are usually 11-12 gallons. the most i've ever put in was 12.5 gallons, and the light had been on forever (needle was well past the E, hehe).
