HID Headlamps (Yellow) vs. Higher Wattage to 100/90w (All Weather)

[drich_enriquez]

Good day,

Ask ko lang kung ano ang ok ikabit sa headlights kung HID yellow or i relay to 100/90w (All Weather or Pure Yellow)?

In terms of price, reliability, easy to install. And ask ko rin kung foglights na H11 bulbs, pwede rin ba i relay?

Yun alternator kakayanin kaya yun load non kapag nag relay ako?

Thanks in advanced and I appreciate your comments and Suggestions.

A yellow bulb HID, 3000k color temp will produce around 2000-2200 lumens. 100/90w will produce 1500-1800 lumens at best. A 4300k hid bulb will produce around 3200 lumens so this is the sweet spot. Price: 100/90w setup will cost you less than 2k incl the hi power harness. For the HID, a plug and play setup will not only cause safety issues to other motorists but also will not maximize the output of your bulb will cost 3-5k. A properly retrofitted headlamps with HID projectors will cost you more than 10k but it will produce 3200 lumens per bulb without any safety issues. If you can afford this, then this is the only way to go with HIDs. If not, stick first with good halogen bulbs and dont waste your money or glare other motorists with pnp hids.

mas maganda paps mag higher wattage ka nalang na halogen kung di ka mag po projector type na HID kasi magiging glare monster ilaw mo kung lagay HID sa reflector bowl type na headlamps. eto pix for comparison.

left using 100/90w pure yellow (circuit brand) - right 6000k purple 35w HID
