What is the difference between halogen headlights and LED headlights for motorcycles?

[KateMarie]

The differences between halogen lights and LED lights are as follows: Different light-emitting principles: Halogen lights emit light by heating tungsten filaments, while LED lights emit light through light-emitting diodes. Different energy consumption: Halogen lights consume more energy because they rely on heating tungsten filaments to emit light. Typically, they use 55W in vehicles. In contrast, LED lights, which emit light through diodes, generally consume around 20W. Difference in brightness: A 55W halogen light produces over 1000 lumens, while some 20W LED lights can achieve 3000-4000 lumens. Different lifespans: Generally, halogen lights have a lifespan of about 500 hours. As LED technology is not yet fully mature, it's hard to determine their exact lifespan, but theoretically, they can last around 50,000 hours. Difference in color temperature: Halogen lights usually have only one color temperature, around 2700K, which gives off a yellowish light. Currently, LED lights typically have color temperatures of 4300K or 6000K, and more options may become available in the future.
