ance vs. halogen bulbs. HID lamps

to last twice as long or longer than

halogen bulbs depending on their

frequency of use.

Cycling the headlamps on and off

more than typical use will shorten

HID lamps life. HID lamps do not

fail in the same manner as halogen

incandescent lamps.

If a headlamp goes out after a peri-

od of operation but will immediately

needs to be replaced. HID lighting

components are more complex than

conventional halogen bulbs thus

have higher replacement cost.
