How Long Do Halogen Headlights Last?

[MacBentley]

Under normal usage conditions, halogen bulbs typically have a lifespan of about 600 hours, equivalent to approximately one and a half years. Below are relevant details about halogen headlights: Differences between halogen headlights and LED headlights: Different principles: Halogen headlights use tungsten filaments to emit light, while LED headlights utilize diodes. Brightness varies, with halogen headlights being relatively dim and LED lights being brighter. Color temperature differs as well; halogen headlights have only one color temperature option, whereas LED headlights offer multiple choices. Energy consumption also varies significantly—halogen headlights consume more energy compared to the more energy-efficient LED headlights. Precautions for using halogen bulbs: Halogen bulbs operate at very high temperatures. Ensure the bulb has fully cooled down before attempting to remove or replace it. The glass envelope of halogen bulbs is made of quartz material. Avoid touching the bulb with bare hands or cloth before lighting it, as this can cause the bulb to lose its luster irreversibly. If the halogen bulb gets dirty, clean it before use with an alcohol-dipped cotton swab.
