I have a question: why do factory-installed HID's don't take a while to warm up, they turn on as bright as they're going to be right off the bat, while the aftermarket ones take time to get the arc fully charged and give you light? why do they vary? aren't they supposed to be the same? By the way, thanks for sharing the knowledge. Great source of info, thanks Diode Dynamics.

Hey there - not sure exactly what you are referring to, as all HIDs (OEM or aftermarket) will have a warmup time. LEDs on the other hand do not have a warmup time, perhaps you were referencing that?
@davelowets
@davelowets 8 ай бұрын
Factory HIDs warm up to full brightness MUCH faster than cheap aftermarket HID kits because the ballasts in the aftermarket kits are usually of sub-par quality compared to a factory ballast.

Help, I have a 2011 audi a5, my driver's side headlight bulb burned out. I learned I have a d3s xenon headlight- low/high beam bulb. I ordered a pair of DMEX d3s bulbs 6000k, oem replacement bulbs (made in china )and removed the headlight assembly , plugged in the newly purchased d3s bulb- and still headlight isn't coming on. The same warning light is still coming on dashboard-( low/high dipped beam ) out. Now the lights that were on the car were Philips Xen EcoStart D3s bulbs. ..made in Germany . I dont know if they are 4300 k, 6000k or what- I thought that must meant the color of the light. My state requires white, so I chose cool white 6000k. Do I need to replace with original brand bulbs ?- Philips Xen Eco Start? The connectors are the same on the cheaper DMEX...why isnt the light coming on ? Could it be the ballast? I feel like if it was a fuse then my passenger side would be out too. Also - ive read other threads where people say their lights were flickering etc , or became dim...mine did not. It was working, and then it died. That's it. Did I hurt something pulling the old bulb out ? Or hurt the new bulb somehow ? How do I know if it is the ballast ? What is the difference between a fresh working d3s bulb Vs a blown d3s bulb??
@diodedynamics
@diodedynamics 2 ай бұрын
Hey there! Since you purchased a replacement D3S HID bulb and installed it correctly it should ignite and start up even if they're from China and not an OEM bulb. If it didn't start up, you can take the bulb and install it on the other headlight and check for function since one side is operating properly. If the replacement D3S HID bulb works on the functioning side of your vehicle, then you most likely have a bad ballast as you assumed not firing up your working replacement D3S bulb. We would advise contacting a reputable HID specialist like our friends at HID Kit Pros for assistance on how to proceed forward if you need assistance.

OKay, this may be a stupid question but, I don't understand one main thing there, the screen shots showed that different input voltages are up and around 42v, but most batteries are 12v still right? Which part exactly provides the step up thingy? Is that the job of the ballast? The ignitor? Or does that use a separate capacitor? Is that how the igniter works, capacitor from 12volt, which sparks the initial start up arc? New to all this on the hobby level so please excuse my ignorance.

What does “AD/ACor AF” mean in HID and is an D1S AD and D1S AC compatible
@diodedynamics
@diodedynamics 2 ай бұрын
In the context of HID lighting, “AD/AC” or "AF" can refer to different types of ballasts or control gear used with the bulbs: 1. **AD (Alternating Direct):** This typically refers to ballasts that are designed to work with alternating current (AC) power but have specific functionality for HID systems. It's less common in terminology. 2. **AC (Alternating Current):** This refers to ballasts that operate on AC power. These are the most common types of ballasts used in HID lighting systems. 3. **AF (Alternating Current Frequency):** This could refer to a specific type of AC ballast that operates at a certain frequency, but it is not a standard term in HID lighting and might be a typographical error or a brand-specific notation. Regarding compatibility between D1S AD and D1S AC ballasts: **D1S:** This is a type of HID bulb with an integrated igniter, which requires a specific type of ballast designed for D1S bulbs. **AD vs. AC Compatibility:** If "AD" refers to a specific feature or type of AC ballast, it could mean they are designed with some additional functionality or difference in design compared to a standard AC ballast. However, typically, the critical factor is that both are designed for AC power. **Compatibility:** If both ballasts (D1S AD and D1S AC) are intended for use with D1S bulbs and are designed to operate on AC power, they should generally be compatible with D1S HID bulbs. Always check the manufacturer's specifications to ensure compatibility, as there can be differences in how the ballasts regulate power or interact with the integrated igniter in the D1S bulb. To summarize, the critical compatibility factor is that both ballasts are designed for D1S bulbs and operate on AC power. If "AD" is a designation for a specific feature or functionality within the AC ballast category, it would still typically be compatible, but verifying with manufacturer specifications is always the best practice. We hope that helps!

It definitely could depend on the design of the bulb and the way it spreads light. I wish we could more accurately answer that for you! Typically, HID bulbs perform better in projector housings because HIDs spread light all over, and the projector captures and sends it in one direction!

We only recommend replacing a D1 bulb with a D1, since D3 bulbs have different voltage requirements. www.diodedynamics.com/replacement-d1s-hid-bulbs-pair.html

Are D1S and D1R interchangeable?
@diodedynamics
@diodedynamics 4 жыл бұрын
Hi there! They typically have the same size ballast and bulb, however, they are designed for different applications. Although, they do offer offer D1S/D1R bulbs where both fit, most D1S are designed for projector housings, while most D1R are designed for reflector housings. We offer size D1S!

I currently have a single d3s hid bulb that works for both high and low beam. If i replace it with an h11 led bulb will it work fine?

Hello! If you have an OEM D3S bulb, you will not be able to convert over to H11 - sorry!

HID is outdated these days. And this video explained why! IT'S JUST TOO MUCH, especially when you can get an LED and just plug and play.

I still like HIDs MUCH better than LEDs. They're not "outdated", HID technology is STILL used all OVER the place today. Not EVERYONE likes the very narrow color spectrum of an LED.

HID is definitely superior in many ways. LED has some unique advantages though. As does halogen. Every technology has its pros and cons.
