My aftermarket sensor from AliExpress has the typical off/DRL and low beam modes, but it also has a city light mode (at least for NAR, it's like having the switch set to parking lights).
It surprised me when I was sitting at a stop light under a freeway at night, and the lights under the freeway were bright enough for the sensor to go into the city light mode (confirmed it didn't go into off/DRL because the parking light indicator on the switch was lit).
I had to go in my garage and kept shining lights (head lamps and flashlights) directly at the sensor until the low beam turned off and switched to city lights but not going in the off/DRL mode. At this point I followed the instructions to set the low beam threshold. Now the city lights mode is basically gone, as that has a separate threshold setting sequence.
I guess you could do the reverse, where you set your sensor's low beam threshold when it's darker than it is outside during your commute. What makes it difficult is if you go under a lot of shaded areas like tree-lined streets in your commute, which would make the sensor think it's even darker outside.
