In this video, Chris explains the difference between HID and LED bulbs. He goes in-depth on how each one works, output colors, and which is better for your application.
Note: This video is for educational purposes only and may show street-use content with products that may not be DOT compliant for use on public roads. The video is not intended to imply vehicle-specific street legality. LED and HID bulbs are street legal in the USA for fog light use and not in low beam or high beam headlights because they are not compliant with DOT / FMVSS108. When looking for on-road-use headlight upgrades we recommend DOT-compliant headlight housings, not bulb replacements. Certain specialty vehicles strictly limited to off-street use and not having DOT registration or license plates may use these products exclusively off-streets. International street legality varies by country. For detailed clarification on-street use, go to www.headlightrevolution.com/s...

Good advice. Although not specifically mentioned, color rendering index is important. It was alluded to in the richness of illumination. LED is the only proper option for dual filament as the filaments are set at different heights as well as distance from base. Another thing is don't just try to get the brightest LED bulbs. Optical alignment is very important but also having LEDs which aren't over-driven is important. This is because light output reduces with heat and it is better to not max out the diodes so they perform more consistently and under less stress. A high quality LED conversion will actually offer better lighting and less glare than new adaptive lighting LED lamps. The one caveat is to first ensure the reflector bowls of projectors lamps have not been burnt by sunlight. Replacement projectors are available if one is willing to dismantle the headlamp. Good and concise video with a minimum of superfluous chatter. Not quite the full picture but very good.

I have no experience with LED but love my HID. I chose 5k bc according to my research its closest to pure white light with very little to no blue hue at all. To me you start seeing blue at 6k which I hate and think is distracting to ppl.

Thank you so much for spreading awareness about putting HID bulbs in your halogen housing. I went through so much touble converting my bikes halogen headlights to projectors mainly for better night vision without blinding incoming drivers with a scattered beam. I see so many people just slapping HID's in their stock housings and it friggin sucks to share a road with them. If you want HID's do the extra work and buy projector housings or do a proper retrofit like I did.

I installed HID headlights as an upgrade on my Goldwing. They were rated at 35 W. At the time LED was not an option. Quite an improvement over stock. Brighter and the lane markers and road side signs were much more visible. The HID lights did draw about 6-8 amps per pair when running. However for the first 5-6 seconds the pair drew close to 15 amps. The Goldwing wiring is not very robust and is a cause for concern. That is why they were replaced with LEDs.

Leds are garbage as headlights, the amount of glare they produce is atrocious. It’s not that they’re bright that causes eye piercing tear in your eye. It’s just how when they’re reflected it splits the colors. 55w hids are insanely bright, yet no glare. All these baffoons installing aftermarket leds. And no, even new cars with oem leds are horrid aswell. Driving down city roads not being able to see the road in front because of leds, it splits the colors so you see white with hints of colors ranging from blue to purple to pink. Drove home the other night and saw 2 cars on a city road where it’s only divided by the yellow line. One of em was a Ford with led headlights. Gee I wonder why, blinding the guy on the other side of the road.

Mine was black on gold. One thing that you had to do was install 4 ohm high wattage resisters in line with the high beam lamps otherwise the wires would start to smoke due to the high current draw. Luckily I had a 65 amp alternator (which was considered big at the time) to keep things powered up. Yeah... I loved that car too. I would jack the car up to remove the transmission and wash it or repaint it if it looked dirty to me as that car was my passion. Then when I got married and had to start doing all of those adult types of responsibilities I sold my Chevelle to purchase a new minivan to haul the kids around and my wife sold her Camaro to aid in the downpayment of a new house. But hey! At least your last sentence doesn't end with "I really miss my mom."

From my experience, LEDs are weaker (for a projector housing) and fail way quicker. Maybe I had bad luck, but I went from using HIDs on my mustang for 3 years with no issues, to having two sets of LEDs fail in 10 months on my F150. Now back to HIDs and I can see way better at night.. we will see how long they last, but I highly doubt they’ll burn out quicker than the LEDs I had.

My experience in Australia driving many hours through the night in various situations. HID’s are much better for long distance driving in the outback. They don’t fatigue the eyes too much after 8hrs. But with more traffic and street signs in more built up areas the reflection off road signage is too much at times and constantly turning them on and off for oncoming vehicles shortens the life of the ballast unit and bulb significantly. LED lights are much better for around town when turning on and off and don’t seem to suffer from the switching. But on long trips with the LED lights, my eyes get worn out fairly quickly which brings on fatigue reasonably soon. Both have a place but I would choose HID over led for driving lights

This was excellent! Thank you for breaking it down for me. I recently bought a set of LED bulbs for my 2015 Kia Sorento LX. They were well rated, but after watching your video I realize didn’t have the best components. The beam pattern was tight, but not too bright. Also, one of the diodes were glitchy, constantly flickering on and off. For now I have a set of Phillips Ultra headlights, which are ok, but I hate the yellowish color. I also bought a pair of LED fog lights but didn’t do my due diligence; they were garbage. I’ll be watching this video a number of times as I improve my knowledge in this space, along with your other videos.

I love LED's but, in my experience, I haven't found one that gives a good pattern in a headlight housing designed for a Halogen or HID bulb (non projector). Halogen and HID bulbs put out light in a 360 degree pattern and LED's rarely do. An LED produces "bi-lateral" light and it missing quite a bit 90 degrees to each emitter. That gives a poor pattern in a headlight housing not designed for them. However, an HID has a better chance of creating a good pattern in a Halogen housing as they also produce light in a 360 degrees.

My car's headlamp uses a shutter that opens when I turn on my high beams, rather than an equivalent dual filament or dual incandescent bulb. In a car with this setup, I prefer a HID setup since the same light source is used for high and low beams, so the hid warm up isn't an issue and I personally find that the beam pattern of a HID resembles that of a halogen much better than an LED.

You nailed this on the head! 👍 Like another commentor said there are a lot of people that don't consider which is the best option for their vehicle or even the right bulb. We just bought a 2002 Lexus LS 430 and right off the bat the passenger side low beam was out. I flew down to North Carolina from western Ky to pick this car up and had to drive it all night back home about 600 miles with one headlight. Not that I couldn't see the road but more that I was worried about getting pulled over, there wasn't a lot of traffic to worry about that late at night. Anyway, I'd been debating on whether or not to switch to LED bulbs for the low beams and researched and researched it on KZfaq and Lexus forum's but I finally, for now anyway, decided to just replace both of them with new HID 5000k bulbs. I just installed them yesterday so I don't even know yet how they perform at night so I'm curious how they'll do. Anyway, I see quite a few people debating in the forums about their particular car and which headlight or fog light etc etc bulbs or lighting systems to go with and many of them don't consider which ones will perform the best in their particular vehicle and in their particular headlight housing, some of them will just throw in whatever bulb they think will look the coolest and go with it. I'm here to try to learn which is the best way to go, I'll probably be in touch with your company soon. Thanks for the video! 👍

I tried using the 9&3 headlight setting on my Civic UFO, and while it did make the road brighter for me, I noticed that it could potentially glare into the eyes of any drivers coming towards me. So, I decided to switch to the 12&6 setting instead, as it seemed safer for everyone on the road. With the 12&6 setting, I could still see the road clearly, but without causing any inconvenience or danger to other drivers. Even my wife agreed that the 12&6 setting was the better choice for the safety of all road users, especially those coming towards us. But lastly for the down fog lights 9&3 are the best as you are not blocking any upcoming driver because your lights are mostly facing down when driving on streets

Nothing will shine as bright or intense as HID hence the name “high intensity” keep at 6000K at the max if you want good visibility. As far as LED headlights, in my own use they just aren’t as killer as HID. Using an LED set up is FAR easier and cleaner than HID kits. HID kits = Ballast mounting, really really hot housings, best light performance. LED kits = EZ installations, not hot to the touch, improving in quality/performance day by day. You get what you pay for is the BIGGEST lesson in bulbs, ballast, kits, lifespan, flicker, warmup.

I wound up changing not only the bulbs but new lenses too. I can’t tell you the aggravation that i caused myself. Until a guy at work told me that the light cuts off at the top. I thought it was being blocked off by the brush guard. I then saw it here on your website. I wish I could get my money back from that little adventure. We did get it working but it damn sure wasn’t worth the expense. I never thought there was that much difference. But obvious what do I know? Glad you guys are out there.

I think I’ll go with LEDs for my 4th generation Maxima, but I like the idea of HIDs for my ‘64 Continental. Is there a big reason I shouldn’t use HIDs in a classic like my Continental? Color doesn’t apply as I like it at about 4000k for any vehicle application.

My headlights on my 05 forder ranger (which I believe are stock) do not adjust very good. If I turn the low beams higher so they are usable on the road then the high beams are too high and shine up in the sky. Is there some way to adjust or will a different headlight type or brand that will help.

Great video!!!! Thank you as always understood the chemical reaction of HID bulbs and understood LED's produce different colors but not how they did that.

I love your videos. They really helped me pick which led fog lights to go with. I took your advice at the time and upgraded all my lights to led except the headlights because the led headlights I found weren’t the right design. So I could get a “brighter” led that isn’t actually as bright

Nice vid. My inspector/ CEU teacher always break our balls telling us bulbs go into the ground and lamps go into light fixtures ( no such thing anymore as a ligjt fixture in NEC code book. Now a luminare ). Thinking about upgrading head lights in my SUV and this was a great teaching aide.

Kevin Beltran - yea but... if that’s the best bulb currently on the market, of course he will advertise it and try to sell as many and possible of the best bulb to his customers. What’s the problem? 🤨 Lol.

All the lighting tests I see are all about how good ( I MYSELF ) can see. When your LED lights blind a on coming F350, it might be the last thing you see. My lifted F350 with hid projectors has only been "flashed" for brights 5 or 6 times in 6 years... My friends factory LED's get flashed 5 or 6 times a night. Think about the other driver & also when your burning a cops eyes, how's that gonna end well?

Hey Jay Dee, That's a very good point. We've been putting more effort into creating videos educating people on how to properly aim and adjust their headlights to help out with this exact problem. Even some of these newer vehicles with factory HID and LED headlights are improperly aimed from the factory, It's crazy! Thank you for watching! -Chris W

Might be time to swap out to one of these GTR Lighting products, with that lifetime warranty you will never have to worry about another bulb going out down the road!🤘
