Why You Should Choose HID Headlights Over Halogen Bulbs
Are you considering upgrading your current halogen headlights to the brighter HID Xenon Bulbs? The following article will inform you about the H.I.D. and the differences between Halogen Lights and H.I.D. Lights.
Halogen Bulbs vs. HID Bulbs
H.I.D. short for High Intensity Discharge requires an electrical charge which ignites xenon gas in the sealed bulbs producing a bright effect closely similar to the lightning phenomenon in a storm. H.I.D. bulbs contain two electrodes in a compacted quartz capsule filled with xenon gas. An electrical discharge is ignited to the electrodes producing HID lighting. Regular Halogen bulbs do not possess this technology. Halogen bulbs rely on its filament to emit light.
HID Technologies vs. Halogen Technologies
HID Xenon bulbs are ten times more durable than halogen lights. Vibrations from driving can slowly cause damage to halogen filaments however HID bulbs have nothing to break inside. HID light emit safer light because the white-blue light is closer to natural sunlight. The illumination of a 35W HID Xenon lamp is 300% brighter than a 55W halogen bulb. The color temperature of HID bulbs are more than 5000 Kelvin compared to 2300 Kelvin Halogen bulbs. Despite the large difference, the HID Xenon system uses less electricity from your car's electrical system and the HID bulbs generates lower heat during operation.
HID's advantages are listed below
* 10X Longer Lasting, able to power over a vehicle's lifespan.
* 3X brighter performance and increase vision range of the road.
* 35% less power consumption and emits less heat.
* Easier, safer, more comfortable and reduces weariness while driving at night.
* Emits a safer white-blue light
Color Temperature
HID bulbs come in a variation of color temperature. Color temperature is measured in Degrees Kelvin (K) which depicts the color of the light source. Color Temperature which rates the brightness of the HID bulb is a common misconception. In actuality, the higher of color temperature, the less light are emitted from the HID bulb. Clearly, for so many good reasons, HID Xenon Lights is the better solution for automotive lighting
