Best LED headlight coversion kits（Part one）

Many people stick with their vehicle’s standard headlights without ever considering that there are other lights out there that are brighter, more cost-effective, and safer than the original lights. Not to mention the fact that any headlight will burn out eventually, including the ones your car came equipped with. When that happens, it makes sense to examine the available options.

LED headlight conversion kits are a great answer. Most LED headlights can be installed in just a few minutes with handy conversion kits. LED lights are known for being energy-efficient and having longer lifespans than other types of bulbs. That more than offsets the somewhat higher initial cost. But which conversion kit should you get? The type of vehicle you drive has a lot to do with it.

LED headlights are notable for their lack of glare compared to regular headlights.

KEY CONSIDERATIONS

There are three main types of non-standard headlights.

1.High-intensity discharge (HID) headlights provide the farthest visibility among the different types of headlights. They emit cool light instead of the warm light of regular headlights and halogen headlights.

2.Halogen headlights surround the main projector beam with a halo of light that creates the impression the vehicle has glowing eyes. They are distinctly brighter than regular headlights.

3.LED headlights are the most energy-efficient. They have a much longer lifespan than other headlights. This offsets the higher initial cost for LED headlights.

Vehicle cmpatibility

Never buy headlights without checking to make sure they’re compatible with your vehicle. The manufacturer usually provides a compatibility chart for this purpose. Be sure to consult it before you make your final decision.

Power output

The power output, measured in lumens, determines how bright and even the headlight’s beam is. It should be bright enough to light up the road without blinding oncoming drivers. A standard 100-watt light bulb puts out 1,600 lumens of brightness. An LED headlight that puts out 8,000 lumens is five times brighter than a regular 100-watt bulb.

Ease of installation

Paying a mechanic to install new headlights for you is usually a waste of money. Installing new headlights is easy. However, the better they’re designed, the easier they are to install. Your best bet is to read what other customers have to say about the installation process.

Color temperature

The color temperature of the light emitted by headlights is measured in kelvins (K). There is an inverse relationship between temperature and color. Higher temperatures create cool light, while lower temperatures create warm light. Warm light ranges from 2,500 to 4,000 K, and cool light ranges from 5,000 to 8,000 K. Most LED headlights emit a cool color in the range of 5,000 to 6,500 K.
