If you want to buy good HID Spotlights, but have a limited budget, then I will share a few tips on what to look out for.
The first thing is to check out the company that you’re interested in.
If you don’t want to pay for name-brand lights like Hella, look for a good local company that specialises in HID Spotlights and Driving Lights.
A good company will have been in business for more than a few years, which means you will get a good quality product, at a reasonable price, and they will have a good well established after sales service and support team.
The second thing to check is the quality of the housings.
You can get good quality ABS housings, and you can get Aluminium housings.
ABS is a plastic, but if the engineering in the plastic is not good, UV radiation from the sun will break down the material of the driving lights quickly and the housing will become brittle and crack.
HID Ballasts in Spotlights.
The HID Ballast is the heart and brain of the operation.
It controls the current draw from your vehicle (12v/24v) and converts it into high voltage to light up the xenon bulb.
The stability and quality of the ballast will gauge how long your xenon bulbs last, and how stable the current is, (cheaper ballasts will make bulbs flicker, ask the supplier if they are AC/DC compatible ballasts).
Xenon Bulbs in HID Lights.
Last but not least in this quick post is the hid bulbs.
First of all, make sure the bulbs are UV Cut, as in the ABS housings, Xenon bulbs that are UV Cut will eliminate harmful UV Radiation.
UV Cut xenon bulbs protect the reflectors and lenses from burning, melting, and becoming foggy.
