Before LED technology became popular, many high-end cars on the market were equipped with xenon headlights. Xenon headlights win the market with high brightness, high color temperature and long life. Today, OEM D series LED car headlights are becoming popular, and the original HID headlight riders are also thinking about whether their cars can be installed with LED car headlights, if they can be modified, whether the installation needs to modify the original car circuit and other issues.
The conversion of xenon lamps to LED headlights has already begun a few years ago. Some people who dare to try something new have the courage to try. However, this refitting work is cumbersome, and requires the removal and refitting of the original car headlight circuit system. Because of the difficulty, the refitting personnel have different skills, and they also face the risk of failure. These difficulties make it not so easy to upgrade xenon headlights to LED headlights.
Today, with the breakthrough of refitting technology, we can directly replace the original car xenon headlight bulbs with the refitted D series LED headlight bulbs without removing any original car stabilizers, just plug and play.
The principle and advantages of xenon headlights
Xenon headlights were originally called high-intensity discharge headlight bulbs, but unlike halogen lamps, they have no filament. In xenon glass bulbs, current is passed between two electrodes, and by activating an inert gas, an intense white or blue arc is produced. , Brightness is several times that of halogen bulbs. Aftermarket xenon lamps are available in different color temperatures in shades of blue, yellow and white.
Xenon headlight bulbs were initially only installed on luxury and higher-priced vehicles, which also provided opportunities for the OEM market. Merchants provided services for upgrading halogen lamps to xenon headlights. The OEM xenon lamp market is very hot.
The principle and advantages of LED headlights
Unlike xenon bulbs and halogen bulbs, LED bulbs do not use gas or high voltage to produce light. LEDs emit light by passing electricity through light-emitting diodes.
Compared with xenon bulbs, LED headlights have many advantages
1. Small volume
One of the key advantages of LED headlights is that in small spaces, because of its small size, LED chips can be arranged in unique patterns to produce light of corresponding brightness according to the design ideas.
2. Higher light efficiency
LED headlights are 90 percent more efficient and generate less heat. They also tend to last longer than xenon or halogen lights, but get dimmer with age.
3. Start-up time is short
The time from turning on the LED headlights to full brightness is very short, which is precisely the shortcoming of the xenon headlights. This provides better security for drivers driving at night. Xenon headlight bulbs take a long time to light up to full brightness.
4. Low cost
The cost of LED headlights is cheaper, it does not need to match ballasts, and the circuit system is more concise. The cost of the original xenon headlight circuit system is more expensive, and the later maintenance cost is also relatively high.
5. Low calorific value
The temperature of the LED headlight bead is one-third of that of the original xenon bulb. Because of this, the temperature of the headlight assembly will be lower, which is beneficial to prolong the life of the circuit system of the headlight assembly and slow down the aging of the lampshade.
7. Luminous purity is high
LED headlights have high color temperature consistency, high luminous purity, clear colors, no need for lampshade filtering, and light wave error within 10 nanometers.
8. More environmentally friendly
There are no ultraviolet and infrared rays in the light spectrum of LED headlights, low calorific value, no radiation, low glare, and waste can be recycled, no pollution, no mercury, and safe to touch. It is a typical green lighting LED source.
9. Xenon headlights upgraded to LED headlight technology
At present, many engineers have developed a unique LED headlight circuit for the upgrade of xenon headlights. The specially designed circuit meets the needs of high-voltage and high-power starting of the original car ballast. It can directly replace the original car xenon with the LED headlight bulb. headlight bulbs. At present, this technology has been widely verified in the market and is very reliable.
Factors to Consider When Upgrading from HID to OEM LED
1. Compatibility:
Although OEM LED headlight bulb technology has been verified on the original car, whether it can 100% match all original xenon headlight systems still needs further verification. So make sure the LED lights you are going to retrofit are compatible with your car and are 100% plug and play.
2. Quality of LED Headlights:
There are many different brands and types of OEM replacement LED conversion kits to choose from, but not all bulbs are of the same quality. It is important to buy OEM LED headlights from reputable sellers and that they are of good quality to ensure they last and perform well for as long as possible.
How to determine the quality of OEM D series LED headlights?
1. good circuit design
The OEM LED headlight circuit must fully consider the high voltage and high current characteristics of the original car ballast, and design to ensure the stable and long-term operation of the LED headlight circuit.
2. High-quality high-power lamp beads
Whether the LED headlights use high-quality high-power LED lamp beads is a key factor. The high voltage and high power of the original car xenon lamp put forward higher requirements on the LED lamp beads when starting. High-quality OEM LED lamps must use high-power and stable lamp beads.
3. Excellent cooling system
For LED lights to have a long life, they must have a good heat dissipation system. At present, the LED headlight radiator has fans, heat-conducting copper plates and copper tubes, and radiators. The product structure of LED conversion headlamp is also very important. The quality of each of the above components determines the quality of LED headlights.
