Which is brighter, xenon headlights or halogen headlights?
1 Answers
Halogen headlights are brighter than xenon headlights. The differences between the two are as follows: 1. Halogen lights have stronger penetration than xenon lights, especially in rainy or foggy weather. Halogen lights use filaments that emit light when electrified. The filaments are prone to fuse under prolonged high temperatures, resulting in a relatively high failure rate. 2. If a xenon light fails, it does not go out instantly but gradually dims, giving drivers time to pull over safely in the dark. Additionally, xenon lights are more energy-efficient and have a longer lifespan than halogen lights. However, xenon headlights have poor light concentration and may sometimes cause the engine to stall automatically.
