Hi

I found this on the net.

HID stands for high-intensity discharge, a technical term for the electric arc that produces the light.

HID headlamp bulbs do not run on low-voltage DC current, so they require a ballast with either an internal or external ignitor

@Kaushik,

Does it have any impact on the Warranty ? If I'm not wrong, installing HID will void warranty on Electricals.

The light is indeed birght when compared to the yellow light bulbs...

Here is the "catch'',We see things around with our eyes due to the light that is reflected back by the objects...

The problem with these bulbs is that the moment you look at them,they seem bright,but when you try seeing objects in their light its more or less a pain.

Due to this charachteristics it has earned its unpopularity amongst car enthusiasts who believe in safety and standards...

I dont find them funky enough to risk our and someones life on road...




Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.
