HID & LED INFO

Should I use HID Xenon or LED headlight bulbs?

  • HID Xenon will be the best option.

Why HID Xenon Over LED headlight bulbs?

  • HID Xenon produces 20-40% more lumens than LED
  • HID Xenon properly beams light on the road

Is  LED’s headlight bulbs brighter and use less power and last longer

  • This is a Myth.  LED’s are not brighter than HID Xenon.  The Misunderstanding is from Household products. “LED uses less power and more efficient” in household lighting compared to incandescent.  But, In Automotive headlight beam bulbs, the aftermarket retrofit LEDS bulbs are being over driven to 120% of the rated power to run.
  • Problems with aftermarket LED beam bulbs
    • Low lumen(light) output
    • Over-driven LED’s causing premature failure
    • Incorrect Beam pattern (Safety Hazard)
    • Shutter/Flickering
