Ok - I can't really see why one would replace the HID with LED as the HID has a far superior light than a dinky LED. And if one wished a cooler whiter HID those are available.
@@maxl7827 it does not matter how outdated you believe it to be. Retrofit of anything is not an option if the it goes against rules/laws, and is on top of that not a viable option as the reflector is not built to take advantage of the new light source.
So... I guess we need to talk about physics. A light source regardless of its design will need a reflector. And the reflector here is built for an omnidirectional light source - which a LED array for the most part is not.
Nice explanation. Just one question that makes me very curious. Is it possible to put LED bulbs with more watts in a 35w standard ballasts without any kind of problems?
I guess it just gets the 12v power from the ballast. After I uploaded this video, I replaced these led bulbs with aukee 50w led. They are even more brighter and I have no issues with them. Running them for the past 8 months.
@@zk.dailybuild wow, didnt know about this, thank you so much, so basically all LED will work, otherwise I was looking for the Bi-LED and was weird not to find one :)
HID is extremely yellow in real life. The camera makes the HID look the same as LED. You need to change the white balance on the camera to match real life
No issues at all. I retuned these ones after a week of using and found another set of bulbs which are brighter than these ones. Had them for very long time now and daily drive my car . It improved the visibility for me.
For me, the Led turned out with better wide viability. I replaced these Led with Aukee 50w led and they are much better. Running them for the past 8 months, and there are no issues at all.
The balast for the HID delivers a higher voltage Where as the driver for the LED delivers 12v I use the Philips high end LED for the high and low beam The light output and the beam pattern are amazing.
Not sure about the other people experiences but for me it improved the lighting and are working great. By the way I had to return these bulbs and got the other brand with more brightness.
