Car headlights not only determine the value of the car, but also affect the comfort of the car, and more importantly, the safety of driving. From the most common halogen lights to xenon lights to the new force of LED lights, what is the difference between them? Here, let's talk briefly

The passing vehicles on the street, if the headlights are yellow are nine out of ten halogen lights, and halogen headlights + reflectors with almost become the most common standard. Halogen headlights due to low color temperature, so the brightness of xenon and LED lights are lower, but their brightness is relatively uniform, there is an obvious advantage is that in the encounter with rain, snow, fog, and other low-visibility weather, halogen light source penetration will be better.

The biggest advantage of xenon lights is the low wattage, and brightness, because there is no filament, will not produce the problem of scrap due to filament breakage, so the service life of xenon lights is also relatively long. However, the start-up time of the xenon lamp is relatively long, from the start to full brightness is generally a delay of 4 or 5 seconds. In addition, xenon lights are emitted by high voltage discharge, and the high voltage in them may cause electromagnetic interference.

Compared to xenon lights, LED car lights not only have good brightness, and are the closest to the natural color, not only energy saving and environmental protection, but their service life is also longer than xenon lights, the important point is that the start is not delayed.

LED car lights and xenon lights are the most different: xenon lights due to the brightness, compared to halogen lights, open at night not only to improve the brightness but also to increase the irradiation distance. In addition to excellent brightness, LED car lights are also the closest to natural color, not only in the light type can be comparable to halogen lights, but also the color temperature is purer, and turning on LED car lights at night to drive can more effectively reduce eye fatigue. In terms of IV Auto Parts' recommendation, it is still recommended that car owners give priority to upgrading LED car lights.
