Xenon, or HID, what is it?

HID

High-intensity discharge lamps (HID tities) are a type of electrical lamp which produces light by means of an electric arc between tungsten electrodeshoused inside a translucent or transparent fused quartz or fused alumina arc tube. This tube is filled with both gas and metal salts. The gas facilitates the arc's initial strike. Once the arc is started, it heats and evaporates the metal salts forming a plasma, which greatly increases the intensity of light produced by the arc and reduces its power consumption. High-intensity discharge lamps are a type of arc lamp.

High-intensity discharge (HID) lamps make more visible light per unit of electric power consumed than fluorescent and incandescent lamps since a greater proportion of their radiation is visible light in contrast to heat.

Color temperature.

Color temperature is a characteristic of visible light that has important applications in lighting, photography, videography, publishing, manufacturing, astrophysics, horticulture, and other fields. The color temperature of a light source is the temperature of an ideal black-body radiator that radiates light of comparable hue to that of the light source. Color temperature is conventionally stated in the unit of absolute temperature, the kelvin, having the unit symbol K.

Color temperatures over 5,000K are called cool colors (blueish white), while lower color temperatures (2,700–3,000 K) are called warm colors (yellowish white through red). This relation, however, is a psychological one in contrast to the physical relation implied by Wien's displacement law, according to which the spectral peak is shifted towards shorter wavelengths (resulting in a more blueish white) for higher temperatures

 The energy consumption of 35 watts of heat loss is about 5% of the energy and the halogen bulb, but consumes about 55 watts, the minimum is equal to 40%.

At the same time it should be noted that up to 35 watt bulb with a temperature of 10000K shines and shines brighter than halogen lamps. The optimum color temperature of 4.300-6000K. (6000K recently started to use more than 90% of car owners)

Comparing the technology.

Using HID lamps optics of your car is clear and not distorted by excessive heat.White light of the xenon lamp is identical to the daylight and are more receptive to the human eye, confirmed by many studies. It also better reflects the markings and road signs, making your driving safer. You will see a more difficult road conditions, hazards can be identified earlier on the road, your acis less tired.

HID lights do not effect the "light wall" fog, rain or snow. You will see a path, rather than rain or snow flakes falling.

Car maintenance costs are reduced because of the xenon light is the life expectancy of more than 3000 hours. For comparison - halogen lamps are about 400 hours.

Why Bi-Xenon, Xenon?

• Improve visibility on the road 3-7 times.
• Xenon light is three times brighter than halogen.
• Xenon light uses 66% less electricity.
• Heat is 6 times less than the halogen.
• Xenon lamp life is 3-5 times more halogen.
• Xenon Provides coverage similar to daylight.
• For Sale Auto Xenon system is valued much higher and is considered to be prestigious.
• does not tire your eyes for long trips.
• Improve visibility in fog.
• Allow you to more easily detect pedestrians on the roads. Suitable for any car, without replacing the original optics.installation of Xenon

Xenon installation

Each HID Xenon accompanying installation guide, but we strongly recommend using the services of qualified specialists HID.LV 8 years of experience with HID Xenon, because each case has its own nuances and complexity of functions, and for each car to an independent installation, and we all want to whine, that you were happy with the purchase of HID Xenon in our company.
