HID Headlights Are Insurance For Highway Safety

Headlights are a safety issue on the highways. You don’t want to be caught unawares when darkness falls and you find that your headlights are unable to pierce the pitch dark envelope ahead and to your sides. It can be a frightening experience to drive through a sheet of rain or an impenetrable covering of fog or mist, especially when your headlights or the battery is old. The standard halogen lights have severe disadvantages. These draw a heavy current and throw far less light than you’d like to have. The bulbs do not last very long and the battery is at times unable to supply as much current as the headlights demand. The net result is very unsavory. It’s quite likely that you may have to pull off the road till the driving conditions improve. However, the HID headlight kits will change all that now. Each kit consists of two HID headlight bulbs, two ballasts and two ballast mounting brackets. The HID bulbs throw 300% more light than the standard halogen bulbs. The current drawn by the HID lights is 35% less than the earlier lights. There is therefore far less load on the battery and this is a good thing especially if your battery is getting on in years.

The average life of HID headlights is 3000 hours of use or 5-10 years and this is considerably more than the standard bulbs you’ve been using so far. The hid headlight kits are smart to look at too and can be installed without carrying out any modification or splicing. You can easily find out the HID equivalent for your automobile bulbs by looking up the bulb guide. You’ll find a large range of HID light bulbs and xenon conversion kits that includes H1 HID, H3 HID and H4, H7, H8, H9 and H10 HID kits. These are all made using the best quality material and craftsmanship.

The HID headlight kits come with installation instructions although the kits are plug n play kind and as mentioned, do not need any modifications for installation. The HID headlights are associated with numbers such as 3000k and 8000k. These numbers refer to color temperatures and each number is indicative of a color. Therefore, while 3000k represents yellow color, 8000k represents baby blue color. Each kit comes with a standard 1-year warranty though you can ask for the 2-year warranty or lifetime warranty if you like. There is an installation video for your kit that you can refer. Your order ships out the day after you place your order. Depending upon your location you’ll receive your order within a couple of days by FedEx.
