Xenon light is a relatively new technology in lighting, proving to be brighter than halogen, and even more cost- and energy-efficient, as well. Xenon light produces up to five times more light than Halogen lights, and lasts up to ten times longer. It is now starting to replace Halogen bulbs in today's cars.
It is preferred because the transition border between light and darkness of Xenon light is more defined than Halogen light, therefore there is much less light reflected from the headlights of an oncoming car using these bulbs and the glare doesn't disturb the drivers - unless they look directly at the light. This may only occur because drivers may not be accustomed yet to such bright, yet controlled, headlights. But they soon will be.
How does Xenon HID work?
The micro-discharge bulb is full of noble gases, of course including Xenon, and is unlike normal incandescent bulbs in that it does not have any filaments. Instead, it lights up when an arc is created between two electrodes of tungsten metal. The ballast has a built in electronic starter to start up and maintain this arc with up to 24000 volts!
The ballast is important as it converts and manages the high energy that fills and supplies the bulbs with energy. The ballast also controls the flow of energy. Its built in tracking system regulates the energy levels and automatically shuts off when voltage threatens to escalate beyond acceptable levels. This ensures that the bulbs do not suddenly explode.
| Other reasons to convert to HID |
| 300% brightness over Halogen bulbs |
| Lasts on average up to 10 times longer than halogens |
| Use less energy rated at 35w which means better fuel economy in the long run |
| Safer driving at night and in extreme weather conditions |
| I have seen them cheaper why should I buy here? |
| 2 year warranty on all factory defective parts from an established VAT registered UK company! |
| Faulty ballasts are more common than you would think! Why would you buy from china/Hong Kong/ USA when your faulty ballast is going to cost you £20 to send back for a replacement (if they do exchange) After you've paid for a cheap kit with 17.5% Import Duty its not looking to cheap is it and you now have a 3 week wait after your payment before you can actually use it! |
