Halogen Bulb

Halogen Bulb may have been a thing of the past. It is certainly an effective lighting component for a 1997 Subaru Imprezza in its own era. Today’s real high performance Subaru Imprezza with 305-hp 2.5-liter DOHC intercooled, turbocharged Boxer engine demands brighter lighting than merely Halogen equipped main head lamp.

As a superior alternative replacement the HID lighting provides fairly close to daylight brightness yet it requires much lower DC current and best of all it produces less heat as well. The only drawback is the cost. In fact that’s why most mass produced cars are not yet equipped with HID lighting as OEM parts.

Though, for every day normal driving your Halogen head lamp is still adequate and cost effective. Halogen Bulb has typically around 3,000 operating hours life time and whenever there is a noticeable drop of lighting performances it is the best time to replace them. A new pair of bulbs is a well worth guarantee for your driving safety.

Driving at night during a light drizzle is the best opportunity to determine whether your existing bulb has worn out permanently. A noticeable drop of vision quality due to small droplets of drizzle on your windscreen will easily reveal a well worn bulb. You will get significant improved night vision as these worn out bulbs are replaced. Driving in confidence does require attentive maintenance to your existing head lamps.

Furthermore the safety of your journey is the paramount factor and well maintained head lamps will safeguard this important driving aspect. Do you check this precaution recently? I know I have just been taking this seriously as of today our subcompact minibus gets two pair of bulbs replacement; one pair for the main head lamp and the other for the Driving Lights.

As this article is being written I just could not wait for the nights fall to walk past in order to see whether my new two pair of Halogen Bulbs does the miracle. It is not however troublesome if my driving CRYSTAL Type Fog Lights would not be dead at all, this afternoon they just reveal themselves to be both completely burnt out. The attendant at nearby workshop suggests replacing them with yellowish pair of bulbs for better fog and torrential penetration. Most OEM fog lights are equipped with simply whitest transparent bulb.

While the technician finishes working on driving lights it seems the right moment to look at alarming dimmer main head lamp. The minibus has just turned 66 thousands km and has recently reached its fourth anniversary. To my recollection night driving is not as intensive yet today’s replacement seems prematurely imminent.
