SilverBullet;782149 said:bro, i have always been curious on what is the difference between:
1) Xenons
2) HID
3) Osram/Light bulbs
can you share the advantages/disadvantages of each? thanks bro..
Bro Xenons and HID are the same http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xenon_arc_lamp
Osram is brand/manufacture name.
Normal bulbs are carbon filament gas filled bulbs normally called Halogen http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halogen_lamp
Halogen are old tech and required higher wattage while HID/Xenon is powered with a ballast and require 30% less wattage. Latest technology is LED and it is available in new luxury cars.
p.s. You have a very nice car, hope to get a taxi ride one day.
Cheers
