Headlight question - ON and OFF

**anthon05** · June 2nd, 2010 09:36 AM

Hello to all. need your insights on this..

as a habit. doing this since I started having a vehicle..

okay lang ba when traffic Off ko headlights. sa gabi pag ON ko ng headlights whenever i stop like sa stop light kahit sandali lang i put it back to Park light.

alam mo naman dito maraming stops so On and Off ako. thinking saving energy or para d masyado mag init ang headlights. somebody told me the static brought about the 'on and off' might shorten the life of my bulbs.

what do you think?

thanks

Okay lang wala naman problema na patayin mo sa stoplight at sindihan park light para mabawasan load sa kuryente lalo na pag marami kang nakabukas na accesorries kagaya aircon ,sound system etc. Tungkol sa static o madaling buhay ng bulb iyong sa akin 10 years na sasakyan ko naging habit ko na buo pa bulb ko matagal buhay ng battery at alternator.

kung halogens lang bulb mo walang problema yan.

but kung hid, it will kill the ballasts and bulb fast!

Osram halogen ang bulb ko .Iyong mga naka HID hapon maliwanag pa araw palang nakabukas na ilaw siguradong hindi na magpapatay ng ilaw iyan pati fog light na hid.

ganyan din habit ko... kapag nasa stoplight patay muna headlight then kapag nag-Go na, sindi na ulit. pati na rin kapag nagpapagas, naka idling etc.

mas tatagal buhay ng electrical components ng kotse.

Basta huwag lang patayin pati parklight!hehe baka mabangga!

this might cause the switch to wear out faster, though.

Kahit halogen ata madali mapupundi pag ganyan.

sa HID naman. sira agad pag ganyan. Kaya napapagalitan ko ang mga driver namin at tatay ko pag ginagawa yan
