Lighting has definitely changed over the years...for cars, that is! No longer do drivers have to rely on halogen headlights as Xenon lighting is coming into vogue. Nor do owners have to go with stock tail lights, as European [or Altezza] lights are in fashion. Even fog lights have come a long way, child! Lets take a look at the newest kid on the block, Xenon headlamps, and how they can light up your planet of driving.

If you could have a set of headlamps that created twice the light of Halogen bulbs whilst expending only half the power, that would be a excellent point, proper? Yes it certainly would and that is the idea behind Xenon headlamps which are rapidly gaining acceptance as common equipment on luxury vehicles from about the planet as effectively as finding their way on specific popular, mass production automobiles also.

A crucial feature of Xenon headlamp technologies is that they generate a clear white light closer to natural daylight, which has been confirmed to enhance driver concentration. Lessened eye strain means that drivers can do what they need to have to do best: get to where they and their passengers are going, safely and securely.

Road markings and indicators are easier to read with Xenon headlamps compared to Halogen bulbs. Indeed, Xenon headlamps are a sturdy, safety improvement as the field of vision for the driver increases sharply, thereby enhancing reaction time in emergency scenarios. Traveling along dark, unlit back roads can be a safety hazard even in broad daylight. However, with Xenon headlamps that buck you might have hit with your halogen-powered auto will enter your field of vision significantly sooner with Xenon lights installed, enabling you to steer clear of potentially deadly get in touch with [for the buck certainly!]. Well-known surveys reveal that as significantly as 80% of all accidents take place because of poor visibility.

In European markets, cars with Xenon technologies also come equipped with a headlamp cleaning program to make certain optimum visibility as properly as an automatic leveling system to let restricted swiveling of the headlamp projector as you turn your car. Some systems take Xenon technologies 1 step further: Xenon Dynamic Bending Light or DBL technology are particular headlamps that rotate the light beam according to the angle of the steering wheel. Operating in each high and low beam mode, bi-Xenon headlamps help to boost vision in wide curbs by up to 90%.

Naturally, Xenon technologies is high-priced and you can't convert halogen powered headlamps to Xenon or Xenon to bi-Xenon...however. Even so, some makers are promoting auxiliary lights that can be added to your bumper to give you an alternative.

Of course, cost is one factor why Xenon technologies isnt however widespread. Even on luxury vehicles I have noticed bi-Xenon headlamps supplied as an selection, to the tune of $750 additional! As with all technological advances, you can count on that some a single, someplace is refining the technologies which hit the market place in 1992  in order to bring Xenon headlamps to the masses. This is very good news for every person as accidents related with poor visibility really should start to drop accordingly.
