Types, advantages and disadvantages of automobile lights

The headlights of the car are the eyes of the car and play a key role in our safe driving at night. With the development of automobile technology, there are many kinds of car headlights, including halogen headlights, xenon headlights, LED headlights, and now there are laser headlights. Understand the differences, advantages and disadvantages of these types of headlights.

halogen lamp

The color of the lamp is yellow, which has stronger penetration, lower price and more convenient replacement, but lower brightness and shorter service life.

Xenon headlight

The color of the lamp is white, a little yellow, with low power, high brightness and longer service life than halogen lamps. However, the maximum brightness cannot be reached immediately when starting, and the failure probability is relatively high, the maintenance cost is high, and it is easy to disperse.

Led light

Also known as light-emitting diodes, the energy conversion efficiency is as high as 90%, and white light is usually used in cars. This kind of lamp has high brightness, more energy saving and environmental protection, long service life and small size, but the cost is relatively high.

Laser headlight

There are many similarities with LED, such as long range, small light divergence, low energy consumption and long life, but the penetration is not as good as halogen lamp, and the technology is more complicated, so it is expensive.

There are still some situations that need our daily attention. It is necessary to know the situation of headlights in time to avoid accidents, develop good habits and avoid the damage of headlights.
