HID, or High Intensity Discharge, refers to lighting technology that relies on an electrical charge to ignite xenon gas in a sealed bulb, similar to the lightning phenomenon in the sky. HID lights do not have a filament, but instead create light by igniting an electrical discharge between two electrodes in an air tight quartz capsule filled with xenon gas. HID lights are also called Xenon lights, referring to the gas inside the bulb.
HID lighting improves durability by ten times as road vibrations can cause damage to halogen filament, but there is nothing to break inside an HID bulb. These light sources also produce a blue-white light that is safer because it is closer to natural daylight. The color temperature is more than 5000K compared to 2300K for halogen.
The light output from a 35W HID Xenon lamp produces 300% more light than a 55W halogen bulb. The HID Xenon system will also consume much less power from your vehicle's electrical system and generate much less heat during operation.
HID lights are three times brigther & provide more consistent illumination of the road, increase comfort & reduce fatigue when driving at night. They last up to ten times longer than conventional halogen bulbs, and will usually last for the life of the vehicle.
