1. Xenon lamps waste electricity
HID uses high-voltage current to activate xenon, forming a beam of arc light that continuously discharges and emits light between two electrodes. It only requires 35 watts of current. The power of an ordinary Petrol Car light bulb is about 65 watts. HID not only saves power, but also reduces the burden on the vehicle power system.
2. Xenon lamps for Petrol Car are expensive and have short lifespans
To activate xenon to form an arc, a Volkswagen Car needs to instantly increase the voltage from 12 volts to 23,000 volts. It requires a set of starters and transformers, which naturally costs more. However, it does not use tungsten wire, and there is no need to worry about being burned by oxidation. Volkswagen Car last five times longer than ordinary light bulbs.
In addition, 90% of the electrical energy of the tungsten filament bulb is converted into heat energy, and the temperature is as high as 650 degrees Celsius, which may damage the surrounding plastic lamps and increase the cost of using Petrol Car; the temperature of the HID is only 450 degrees Celsius and is protected by a quartz tube, which greatly reduces related losses.
3. The higher the color temperature of xenon lamps for Petrol Car, the better
The color temperature of Volkswagen Car HID is 4000K~6000K, the light color is white and blue, and the brightness is much higher than ordinary light bulbs. The lighting source of the stadium also uses gas discharge technology, but the higher the color temperature, the better.
If you use 8000K or 10000K, the effect of lighting the road will be reduced because the color temperature is too high.
