Gas To Propane Conversion Kits

View:

I believe most people would spend

money on upgrading the Headlight system for their car. And HID Conversion Kits

is the best choice, somehow there are many different kits, like single beam

kit, hi/lo beam kit on the market. This article will tell you the differences

on each kit, the color temperature, and much more.

Four Common HID Kits

1 . Single Beam Kit, comes with 2 pairs of HID bulbs, 2 ballasts.

(if your vehicle uses 2 pairs of bulbs, 1 for low beam and the other for high

beam, you can take this single beam hid kit for your low beams.) Common Bulb

sizes are H1, H3, H4-1, H7, 9004-1, 9005, 9006, 9007-1?

2. High/Low Beam - Hi/Lo Kit, comes with 2 pairs of HID bulbs (one HID and one

halogen on each HID bulb to perform the high and low beam function, Halogen

for high beam and HID for low beam.) and 2 ballasts. Common bulb sizes are H4-2,

9004-2, 9007-2.

3. Telescope Kit: Single HID can switch between high beam and low beam, with

2 ballasts and installation clamps. Common bulb sizes are H4-3, 9004-3, 9007-3.

4. Bi-xenon Kit: 2 HID bulbs on each bulb, which works for high and low beam,

with 4 ballasts and installation clamps. Common bulb sizes are H4-4, 9004-4,

9007-4.

Most of the HID Conversion Kits on the market are 35W/12V, you need 24V for

a truck. Some hid kits are using 55W, so buyer has to read the specifications

carefully.

Color Temperature:

HID Color temperature refers to the degrees (K) , which simply the measures

of the color for the lighting output, like golden yellow, white, crystal white,

blue ?

Degree (k) refers only to the color, while lumen refers to the lighting intensity.

So the higher the color temperature (degrees K) doesn't mean a higher light

intensity (lumen). Here is the summary for the common color temperature on the

market --

3000K (Golden Yellow) , 4300K (Bright White), 5000K (white), 6000K (Crystal

White),8000K (Crystal Blue), 10000K (Aqua Blue), 12000K (Purple-Blue).

5000K or 6000K are the most popular color temperature, and if you are planning

to buy the hid kits with 10000K or over, please be careful about the legal issue

in your country. Most of the 12000K or 14000K (purple) are using off road only.

Warranty:

You can get the HID Kits on EBay or other auction sites at a cheap price, but

warranty issues would always be a big problem. So buy it from a reliable shop

or online store would be the best choice because you will have a better follow

up for the warranty issues.

HID is the upgraded lighting kits from the original halogen

bulbs, it's getting more popular this few years, as most of the new car models

are a type of electrical lamps which produce light by means of an electric arc

between tungsten electrodes housed inside a translucent or transparent fused

quartz or fused alumina tube.

Advantages for HID Lights :

- Greater output of light , can up to 3 times brighter than a halogen bulbs

- Cover almost 70% of the road , have a better vision when driving.

halogen

bulbs.

Hi-lo Beam : H4-2, 9004-2. 9007-2 hid for low beam and halogen bulb for high

beam, with 2 ballasts and installation clamps.

Telescope Kit : H4-3, 9004-3, 9007-3, single HID can switch between high beam

and low beam, with 2 ballasts and installation clamps.
