hxprrn3856 / HID-Installation-Guide

HID Installation GuideA. GENERAL: Read this manual in detail before installing or using the HID system to ensure 100% performance. If you are not equipped with the knowledge of HIDs or car electrical systems, please ask a store or garage qualified technician for assistance to avoid incorrect installation.Our HID conversion kit is designed to replace 12v automotive or 24v truck halogen bulbs. HID service life (approximate 2000hrs –3000hrs) is almost 5-6 times longer than a conventional halogen bulb and the output is more than 3 times the brightness of a 55w halogen bulb with lower power consumption. B. PRECAUTIONS: 1. Ensure the electrical system of the automobile is completely disconnected from the battery before handling or installing the HID conversion kit.2. Problems and defects arising from incorrect installation or use are not covered within warranty. Always ensure proper installation and care in handling.3. The rated current of this HID is 3.2A rated voltage is 12v (or 24V); rated power is 35w (or 50w).4. During startup operation (in lighting), this product will produce 23kv of high voltage, 5. If you discover any damage or defect on the HID bulb, ballast or cord, stop further installation as it might cause burns or accidents by electric shock.6. Do not drop or apply unreasonable force to the bulb or move this equipment by holding the connector or harness. Never touch or scratch the bulb. Also do not remove oil with alcohol when you touch the bulb during operating, as it might damage the system, reduce the life span of the bulbs and affect overall performance. 7. Do not use wet hands or oil-stained hands when installing or inspecting the HID system as it might cause burns or injury by electric shock. 8. Contamination can degrade performance or cause premature failures. If necessary, clean the bulb by wiping with a lint free towel.9. Tighten connectors. Loose connectors might create electrical discharges, which may provide causes for smoke or fire.10. Check the shape of the hook and the direction of the bulb prior to mounting the bulb so that the bulb can be mounted in normal condition.11. The silicone wire supplies high voltage and can not be worn, over torn or twisted.12. Do not disassemble the starter or ballast. Tampering will void the warranty. C. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS 1. Check Lamp Operation Prior to Installation Assemble the components of the kit then connect the ballast directly to the car battery or a similar power source. Check to see if the lamp can be lighted. This is important to ensure the HID is operating properly before installation. 2. Check Components Check all the necessary components of the package prior to installation. Parts nameInstallation ProcedureInstall with care to prevent any serious damage. 1) Open the conversion kit box and familiarize with the necessary components and ASSEMBLY DIAGRAM below. Plan where the ballast should be mounted. 2) Disconnect the vehicle battery3) Disassemble the vehicle headlamp and all related accessory lamps or covers where necessary to obtain access to the bulb and sufficient space to install the HID system.4) Open the rear cover of the lamp and remove the halogen bulb.5) Drill a 25 or 32mm hole at an appropriate location in the rear cover of the lamp. The HID globe wiring will pass through this hole, so ensure there is sufficient space on either side of this hole for the wiring to pass without jamming or kinking when the lamp is reinstalled.6) Mount the HID globe in the globe holder. Double check that the globe is secure and that any mounting spring are clipped correctly.7) Connect the spade terminals to the wiring harness that was originally connected to the halogen globe. Pass all of the wires from the globe through the 25 or 35mm hole in the rear cover and seal with the grommet.8) Install the ballast in the vehicle structure, preferably on metal.9) Install the ballast in the vehicle wiring harness, fix by tape or tie wrap.10) Replace the lamp fuse with 20 amp fuse. Reconnect the battery and test all systems. Correct lamp alignment should be checked once the installation is completed, if the focus is not perfect, adjust the headlight in the car. n Installation Notes and Warnings: ² Ensure that the ballast is securely attached to a steady mounting point, preferably metal.² Incorrect polarity can damage the HID, double check that the red lead is connected to (+) and the black lead to (-) before reconnecting the battery.² Check all connections are secure. High resistance in the wiring or connections will cause the system to malfunction.² If the vehicle wiring is old or is of insufficient capacity it may be necessary to install a relay to ensure that enough voltage is available to start the HID globe.² If the system fails to operate as expected, verify correct wiring , secure connections, fuse and damage to ballast cables.² Keep the lamp lens clean and free of obstructions. Obstructing materials may cause overheating of the globe or excess glare for on-coming motorists.² Do not disassemble the ballast or wire harness. There is a risk of electric shock or burning and doing so will void the warranty.² Do not carry out installation with power connected. Wear gloves to reduce the risk of burns/electric shock..² Do not touch xenon bulb when it is lighting to avoid hurt by high temperature and do not gaze at the xenon light as it discomfort your eyes.

HID xenon headlights horn blowing into the vehicle area1, the birth of a new industry association: Ban enacted in Wuhan for the first time that light, the new HID industry association established immediately at the end of last year, the current HID its major businesses are looking forward to something, the early release of new industry standards, to find xenon lamp industry and the national policy of running point will make the industry bigger. 2, the signal into the vehicle industry: HID xenon headlights with more stable quality, modified xenon headlights have been accepted, from an objective point of view, recognizing that national policy began to look into the HID xenon lamp, the market analysts think that this is a good things, the cause of xenon lamp in China will the importance of integration with the West, the United States and Europe had already achieved major OEMs supporting the production of xenon lamp; brief said that if the HID bulb + HID Ballast + = into the whole two-ray lens car industry will come in spring; we do take this analogy with the teacher and students, before xenon lamp industry is concerned about the students from the teacher, back in 2004 before the major automobile manufacturers to start working on finding quality and reliable domestic HID manufacturers, it is even out of glasses in general are looking for motorcycle factory xenon lamp supporting vendors. 3, 4S store sales over the converted stores, BMW, Mercedes-Benz cars to the line: More and more cars have already installed the original car xenon lamp, xenon lamp advantages: energy saving, gas light, ten times longer life than ordinary lights, lighting effect is very good. At the same time, the domestic 4S stores have already purchased xenon lamp, xenon lamp is used to buy a car to send events. Opinions on new vehicles sold installed a xenon lamp conversion shop to push than the xenon lamp has been move faster, more market share to 4S shops, stores selling new cars snatched. 4, two optical lens to replace the single light lens: Superior condenser lens will change the result of light pollution and installed a xenon lamp lens than the lens is not installed xenon lamp has the following advantages: 1, concentrating excellent, no divergence in the beam injection. 2, modified to meet the pursuit of those psychological, because it is not only bright light, and emitted light is very beautiful and desirable. 3, is used to light the way, rather than across people's eyes, and by the national policy protection. We are concerned with xenon lamp is developing into an auto parts giant, in the near future be able to enter the vehicle market. Guangzhou Liwin Electronic Technology Co., Ltdwww.liwin-china.com

hxprrn3856/History-of-hid-lamp

History of hid lamp HID lamps are typically used when high levels of light over large areas are required, and when energy efficiency and/or light intensity are desired. These areas include gymnasiums, large public areas, warehouses, movie theaters, football stadiums, outdoor activity areas, roadways, parking lots, and pathways. More recently, HID lamps have been used in small retail and even residential environments because of advances in reduced lumen bulbs. Ultra-High Performance (UHP) HID lamps are used in LCD or DLP projection TV sets or projection displays as well.HID lamps have made indoor gardening practical, particularly for plants that require high levels of direct sunlight in their natural habitat; HID lamps, specifically metal halide and high-pressure sodium, are a common light source for indoor gardens. They are also used to reproduce tropical intensity sunlight for indoor aquaria.Most HID lamps produce significant UV radiation, and require UV-blocking filters to prevent UV-induced degradation of lamp fixture components and fading of dyed items illuminated by the lamp. Exposure to HID lamps operating with faulty or absent UV-blocking filters causes injury to humans and animals, such as sunburn and arc eye. Many HID lamps are designed so as to quickly extinguish if their outer UV-shielding glass envelope is broken.Beginning in the early 1990s, HID lamps have been employed in motor vehicle headlamps. This application has met with mixed responses from motorists, who appreciate the improved nighttime visibility fromHID headlamps but object to the glare they can cause. Internationalized European vehicle regulations require such headlamps to be equipped with lens cleaners and an automatic self-leveling system to keep the beams aimed correctly regardless of vehicle load and altitude, but no such devices are required on motorcycles, or in North America, where ECE regulations are inapplicable and inherently more glaring beam patterns are also permitted. The fitting ofHID conversion kits (which include HID lamps that fit into original headlamp units in place of the original bulbs with no change to the headlamp's lens, reflector or housing) generally results in extremely high levels of glare, and is illegal throughout most of the world. However, complete halogen headlamp units can be replaced with complete HID headlamp units, provided that the replacement headlamp units comply with the applicable standards.Guangzhou Liwin Electronic Technology Co., Ltd. www.liwin-china.com

hxprrn3856/HID-Conversion-Kit-Frequently-Asked-Questions

1. What is HID?HID stands for High Intensity Discharge. HID use a high voltage charge of electricity from the ballast to arc between two electrodes inside a bulb full of different gases (similar to neon and florescent lighting). The gases are excited by this arc of electricity and then discharge an extremely intense light. HID give off a much larger amount of light then standard halogen bulbs or even high wattage halogen bulbs. HID can have a light output as high as 4 times that of halogen bulbs! Please refer to the picture for an example of an HID Conversion Kit.2. What is the Kelvin Scale and Color Temperature Scale?The Kelvin Scale or Color Temperature Scale has nothing to do with heat. The Kelvin or Color Temperature of an HID bulb has to do with the color output of the bulb. The lower the Kelvin or Color Temperature the more yellow/white an HID bulb will be. For example a 3000K bulb will be very yellow in color. Great for fog lights and foul weather use. A Kelvin or Color Temperature of 4300 is white in appearance with very little to no yellow color. It is the color of most HID bulbs in high end cars like BMW, Mercedes, Lexus, Acura, Infinity, etc. Above 4300K the colors begin to get blue. 6000k HID bulbs have a white/light blue color. As the Kelvin number rises further, 8000K, 10,000K, 15,000K the bulbs have a deeper and deeper blue color that begins to cross into purple. Above 15,000K the bulbs become darker purple. 4300K tends to be the brightest and whitest color for HID bulbs. As you go up the scale, the trade off for more color is slightly less light. Even though you loose some light even the 30,000K HID bulbs still have more then double the light output of halogen bulbs. Please refer to the picture for an example of a bulb .3. How long will my HID bulbs last?HID bulbs last around 5000 hours. To put that into perspective that is 208 days of continual 24 hours a day use. Halogen bulbs last between 150 and 500 hours. In real every day use, since most people only drive for a few minutes to an hour a few times a week with their lights on, the average user should get about 5 to 8 years of use out of them before they should need replacement. Most people have to change a headlight bulb with about a year to a year and a half.4. Are HID Conversion Kits easy to install? Most of the kits are very easy to install. They just plug into your stock harness and you need to mount the Ballasts. The HID bulbs go in just like your halogen bulbs. Bi-Xenon kits require slightly more wiring (a wire needs to be hooked up to the battery and another to ground) in order to accommodate the extra power the kit needs to switch the bulbs into high beam model. Bi-Xenon kits are not necessary but do allow for the use of high beams in the H4 (9003), H13 (9008), 9004, and 9007 applications.5. How much power will the HID Conversion Kit use?HID Conversion Kits use ballasts that draw 35 watts of power. The majority of the halogen bulbs out there draw at least 55 watts. The HID Conversion Kit does draw slightly more power at start up but it is usually not higher then 55 watts for more then 2 seconds.6. Are HID Conversion Kits DOT approved?The only HIDs that are DOT approved are the ones that come factory installed on new vehicles. There are no HID conversion kits that are DOT approved. Therefore HID conversion kits are for off road, racing and show car use.7. Will in need to adjust the aim on my headlights after installing HID?Depending on your vehicle, you may need to lower the aim of your headlights as HIDs produce far more light then standard bulbs. You should mark a line on a wall at the top of where your stock bulbs light up the wall from 10 to 20 feet away. Then install your HID conversion kit and see where the light is. If it is above the line you drew on the wall you will need to lower your headlight aim. Most, if not all car owner抯 manuals have the directions for aiming your headlights. Be polite to fellow drivers and lower the headlight aim if needed.8. How come your kits have the same shape and look of other cheaper kits?We asked the same question! In order to keep costs down and to keep HID parts compatible across the board, companies purchase case castings from the same casting companies. Thus many cases look the same but the electronics and designs inside can be very different! High quality digital components make the difference in our kits and result in a dependable, high performance, waterproof and shock resistant product. Also many HID bulbs also look the same, but the blend of gases and quality of glass that make up the bulbs result in better color and zero ultra violet radiation that could damage your cars.
