HID (High Intensity Discharge Lamp)

Description

Features of HID (High Intensity Discharge Lamp) 1. Extended durability of the HID illumination tube with xenon-gas minimizes the needs for exchange or maintenance of the light bulb. 2. The power consumption of HID reduced by almost *0% of halogen lamp (HID: *5W, halogen lamp: *5W) extends the batteryâï¿&frac*2;ï¿&frac*2;s life cycle and further enhances the fuel efficiency. 3. HID headlight lamp is about three times brighter and has the life span at least five times longer (2, **0hrs estimated) than the halogen lamp. 4. The brightness of HID headlight lamp more than three times brighter than halogen lamp allows the wider view and help to avoid any possible accident during your driving at night or in rain, reducing your eye strain, 5. It proves its outstanding efficiency especially when you are driving the highways, back streets or country roads without the lights, or driving under the rain. âï¿&frac*2;» Composition of HID (High Intensity Discharge Lamp) HID system consists of âï¿&frac*2;  light bulb (blue), âï¿&frac*2;¡ igniter, and âï¿&frac*2;¢ ballast. The igniter receives the current through the ballast, momentarily raises the voltage and produces the spark to turn on the light. In other words, it initializes the plasmatic discharge by transferring the high-voltage pulse to the electrode. The ballast is an electric control, which enables the stable power supply to the igniter and the bulb, while initializing the arc and during the normal period of the arc. In principle, the initial power to get the reaction of the gas requires around *5, **0v. Thus, the voltage is raised by the ballast and then the inside of the bulb triggered by the momentarily high power emits the light.
