Motorcycle Hid Conversion Kits

View:

Haveyou ever noticed one car with sleek headlights that are a very different colorthan the average halogen headlights that you are now so used to? Chances arethat what you were looking at were HID headlights that are becoming morepopular as each day passes. It is true that these tend to be more on theexpensive side, but there are good reasons for it.

Firstof all they last longer, a lot longer than halogen bulbs which means a heck ofa lot longer than the average household light bulb. Second of all they workbetter. People who get good quality HID conversion kits experience an averageof about three times more light than what they got from the previous halogenheadlights. In some cases up to five times more light is produced.

Ifyou compare halogen and HID headlights one huge key difference will stick outat you immediately. Halogen headlights have filaments encased in quartz that isof course filled with halogen gases while HID headlights have tubes filled with different gases that react to create anarc that produces the light without the use of filaments.

Assaid before HID conversion kits use headlights that work by having an electriccurrent course through gases that respond by creating an arc that gives youmore light than you could ever get from the halogen headlights that youprobably have in your car right now. Because it doesn't use filaments, the wayhousehold light bulbs and halogen headlights do last a lot longerthan anything you use now. They can last as long as our car.

Thereason other light bulbs burn out is because the filaments that allowelectricity to flow through eventually wear down and snap ending the flow ofthe current. This happens rather quickly with household light bulbs because asthe filaments begin to break down they deposit on the bulb. Halogen headlightslast a lot longer than household light bulbs because the filaments are somewhatprotected by a quartz tube that is filled with halogen gases the halogen gasesallow the bits of the filament that are broken down to undergo a reactionallowing them to be deposited back onto the filament significantly improvingthe life of each filament. The HID lights last the longest because they don?thave filaments that break down over time.

Despiteall of these wonderful improvements that come with the HID lights it would takea long time for them to heat enough for there to be visible light. However,thanks to xenon and their break through we are past this problem. Now there isxenon added to the gas mixture to help produce the light faster than you wouldhave it otherwise.

Twodecent HID conversion kits are the HID xenon conversion kit and the McCullochconversion kit. The McCulloch conversion kit claims that it is easy enough foranybody at home to put in their car, but it is always better to find a mechanicwilling to and get their opinions on the best HID conversion kits available.

Motorcycle Hid Conversion Kits

HID automotive lamps are using the technology similar to the common vapor-filled

street lamps. And HID lamps are also called xenon lamps , just refer to the

gas inside the lamps. In a Simpler wordings, HID is the upgraded lighting kits

from the original halogen bulbs, it's getting more popular this few years, as

most of the new car models are all equipped with the HID Light Kits.

Advantages for HID Lights :

HID lights generate a greater output of light compared to the original halogen

bulbs, which can up to 3 times. And its light covers almost 70% of the road,

so it's good for road safely as driver has a better vision on the road. If you

have the experience in using the original halogen bulbs, the bulb life is always

short, but HID lights can last up to 4-10 years with a greater durability, can

withstand a greater amount of vibrations and shocks. HID light is a good choice

when you are planning to upgrade your car headlight system, as it provides greater

light with lesser power consumption, can save it up to 25%.

Color Temperature:

HID Color temperature refers to the degrees (K) , which simply the measures

of the color for the lighting output, like golden yellow, white, crystal white,

blue. Degree (k) refers only to the color, while lumen refers to the lighting

intensity. So the higher the color temperature (degrees K) doesn't mean a higher

light intensity (lumen). Here is the summary for the common color temperature

on the market -- 3000K (Golden Yellow) , 4300K (Bright White), 5000K (white),

6000K (Crystal White),8000K (Crystal Blue), 10000K (Aqua Blue), 12000K (Purple-Blue).

Bulb Size :

The common bulb size is H1, H3, H4, H7, h13, 9004, 9005, 9006, 9007, D1S, D2S.

And it has single beam conversion, hi lo kits, Telescope and Bixenon kits. Here

is the summary for the features and bulb sizes ranges for all those kits.

Single Beam Conversion Kits -- H1, H3, H4-1, H7, 9004-1, 9005, 9006, 9007-1,

with 2 ballasts and installation clamps.

Hi-lo Beam : H4-2, 9004-2. 9007-2 hid for low beam and halogen bulb for high

beam, with 2 ballasts and installation clamps.

Telescope Kit : H4-3, 9004-3, 9007-3, single HID can switch between high beam

and low beam, with 2 ballasts and installation clamps.

Bi-xenon Kit : H4-4, 9004-4, 9007-4, 2 HID bulbs on each bulb, which works for

high and low beam, with 4 ballasts and installation clamps.
