Lighting Encyclopedia: The pros and cons of Xenon lamps

In response to the topic of xenon lamp modification that has been discussed in recent days, Wan Guan Xiaobian has summarized the articles on the pros and cons of Xenon lights, and hopes to help everyone.

The high-pressure gas discharge lamp of the xenon lamp without the filament of the halogen lamp, referred to as the HID xenon lamp, can be called the heavy metal lamp or the xenon lamp. The light-emitting principle is to increase the voltage to 23000V or more by the starter and the electronic ballast. This causes the helium to form an arc between the two electrodes and emit light.

Xenon lamps also exhibit a variety of advantages and disadvantages in the process of use, modification enthusiasts can decide whether to change the headlights according to their own needs.

Advantages of xenon lamps:

1. The color temperature of xenon lamp is from 3000K to 12000K, and the color temperature of 6000K is similar to that of sunlight, but it contains more green and blue components, so it shows blue-white light. This blue-and-white light greatly increases the brightness of road signs and signs.

2. HID is three times higher than the brightness efficiency of the halogen lamp, which has obvious effect on improving the visibility of the driving line at night and in the fog.

3. Xenon lamps emit more than twice the luminous flux of halogen lamps, and the efficiency of converting electrical energy into light energy is also more than 70% higher than that of halogen lamps. Therefore, xenon lamps have relatively high energy density and light intensity. The increased brightness of the car's headlights also effectively expands the visual range in front of the car, creating a safer driving condition.

4. Power saving 1/2, halogen lamp consumes more than 60W of electricity, and xenon lamp requires only 35W of electricity.

5. Since the xenon lamp has no filament, there is no problem that the filament is scrapped and the service life is much longer than that of the halogen lamp. The service life of the xenon lamp is equivalent to the total running time of the average life cycle of the car.

6. Once the xenon lamp fails, it will not be extinguished instantly, but will be extinguished by gradually dimming (or quickly lighting), so that the driver can win time in the night driving, and emergency stop.

7. Xenon headlights do not produce excessive glare (in the case of a lens) and do not cause interference to drivers on the road.

Disadvantages of xenon lamps:

However, the concentration of xenon lamps is not good, and it is necessary to refit the lens at the same time to achieve the effect of collecting light.

In the modification, the light fault light sometimes lights up, because the original car's bulb loss power is large (55W), and the xenon lamp power is small (35W), so its power is not enough after the modification, and the alarm is used as the starting current of the xenon lamp. It is 8A, and the original car is 6.2A.

Therefore, the majority of car owners need to be modified to the standard 4S shop to convert the standard xenon lamp.
