Halogen vs xenon vs LED, an objective comparison (complete english version)

Показать описание
I made this video to demonstrate the differences between the three head lamp types halogen, xenon and LED. These differences were much clearer in real life, that´s because of my cameras. I´m sorry about that. I will make a better video in the future, with better cameras and better ideas =)
Till then I hope you enjoy this amateur stuff here =)

He put a hell of a lot of work into making this, FairPlay to him. For me the xenon’s are superior as in further and wider, and more clarity, the LEDs are slightly brighter, but the xenon’s are more high definition

Underrated video, it’s very nice and gave me the full information about these 3 types

Xenon looks to be the better with range visibility. But I do prefer the warm glow of the halogen. I’m upgrading from halogen to xenon! Thank u for the video. Very informative.

Best video demonstrating the differences I watched quite a few and none of them were so straightforward interestingly the LED never had as much coverage I thought I am installing xenon in my car right now but I'm glad I checked this video out first it confirmed that I'm making the right move

Brilliant video, really helped me determine the difference between xenon and led

Probably the best video I've ever seen regarding the light bulb illumination source type.
Most cars, especially old ones, got the halogen lamp installed which is not bad. It can be easily improved with some LED's (I'm referring to cars headlights that have no embedded LED's). This upgrade is cheap, easy to install and low consumption. There is a noticeable difference between the halogen and the rest. (and not only the colour temperature)
I also noticed that there is a slightly difference between the xenon and the LED's.
Defo! the xenon looks much brighter on a country road but they come with a price. I'm gonna wait for the next LED generation.
What a nice video and thanks for spending the time creating it!

Great video, thanks for creating it. It even covers the mist cases 🙏.
The Xenon light seems quite smooth and uniform in this video.

Fantastic video. Great work. Lingering a little longer on the facts should improve it even more.
Conclusion: I wish I could combine the warm halogen colour with xenon's range. Not being possible, prefer the xenon.
Thanks very much for a professional, music-(noise)-free demonstration, with no excitable, stupid chat.
Regards.

The xenon light looks so evenly lit compared to the other ones.

Not much difference between Xenon LED in terms of illumination level. As far as I know that has to do that Xenon already puts out as much light as its allowed on european roads.

LEDs is the way to go. That’s why I upgraded from halogen to LEDs in my Skoda Octavia with projector headlights including the main beam and yellow LEDs in the fog lights! I don’t care what people say about you can only use halogen or they need to be warmer yellow is the best colour for all weather day and night!

Geat video, seems like LED will work fine on my next car, I have Xenon right now that I am really happy with, seems like there isnt too much difference between Xenon and Led

This is the most helpful video on this topic. Thank for the information!

When in comes to halogen, the design of the reflector matters a lot. I could always see a huge difference between my c classes, s203 vs w204.

Hoping that when I get one with xenon's/ILS I get better low beams, as the high beams are already bright enough!

Maybe the only fair video I've seen, not another one of those "influencer" type, heavily edited videos.

Be warned. Xenon ballasts can hold up to 33, 000 volts. Handle with care if upgrading to Xenons.

strong and direct to the point, maybe missing in numbers how much brighter each type is in a straight forward number (in warmth / brightness-shine/Lumens). But still very informative video.

I learned to respect xenon's when I went to replace one and the person at the autoparts store strongly recommended I go to a Volvo mechanic or dealer.

I've always prefered simple design and I wish car manufacturers would use LEDs but with the same simple design of halogens. Even the cars themselves would look better with simpler and smaller design

It's interesting that you would choose to use very different temperatures between Xenon and LED. The lower temp Xenon looks as bright as the LED that is 1500k higher
