More and more people today are going for the HID (High Intensity Discharge) bulbs on their cars replacing the usual halogen headlights. The HID bulbs come with nearly 20,000 volts to ignite the metal halide and xenon gas held within one sealed up glass tube above the bulb base.
The light that comes out is 3 times powerful than your conventional halogen bulb, improving the appearance of the car to a great extent. You will also find it in different colors like blue, brilliant blue, exotic violet, diamond white, white, golden yellow etc, depending on temperature. The most common is the golden yellow where the temperature is around 6000-8000 Kelvin.
Apart from giving your car a stylish makeover, the highly powerful HID bulbs are quite durable as well. They promise to last for 3,000 hours in an average compared to the halogen ones that last for only 300 hours. Besides, these are energy efficient and shock-resistant too.
