| Retrofitting |
Specifically designed for aftermarket
retrofitting to stock halogen lights. Bases designed to plug directly into
vehicle's factory light housings with virtually no modifications. |
May require substantial modifications. |
| Time between power ON and OFF |
With Intelligent Ignition Protection
System® (I.I.P.S), the ONLY HID system with circuit protection that could be powered ON and OFF
continuously within 0.2 second interval. |
No circuit protection may temporarily shut down, damage or cause
the HID to malfunction permanently if HID is powered ON and OFF within
short intervals continuously. |
| Water Resistance |
Industry's FIRST 100% water resistant
design, HID system could continue to function if contacted water or even
UNDER WATER for short period of time. |
HID system may damaged permanently if
contacted water. |
| Color and pattern of Light Beam |
Laser technology to calibrate the focus
point and color of HID bulb for precise focused and correct colored
light beam. Each bulb is also fully tested before packaging.
| HID bulb may not be calibrated
correctly to produce inconsistent color beam and pattern. |
| Quality |
To ensure correct beam patterns Xtreme HID's
DOES NOT use rebased/modified generic bulbs nor machined fittings with an
adapter ring glued on HID bulbs. All Xtreme HID's products are up to the
highest Japanese industry standard. |
May use rebased/modified generic bulbs
e.g. Phillips or machined fittings with an adapter ring glued on HID
bulbs. |
| Safety |
Micro-processer (CPU) controls 3 stages safety
features to prevent ballast overload due to high temperature, power
spike, and irregular voltage. |
May temporarily shut down, damage or cause the HID to
malfunction permanently due to high temperature, power spike, and
irregular voltage. |
| Wiring Harness |
Equipped with very long 24" power and bulb wiring
harness for easy fitting.
|
Short wiring harness (usually about 12") makes
installation very difficult. |
| Ballast and Igniter Designs |
Separate ballast and igniter modules to reduce the
size of both units for easy mounting. World smallest ballast. |
Large and heavy modules make mounting very difficult. |
| Ease of Installation |
Connectors equip with Reverse protection - the
ballast will not damage if the positive and negative wires are plugged
incorrectly.
Fool-proof connectors ensure correct connections. |
System may easily damaged if positive and negative
wires are plugged incorrectly.
Non Fool-proof connectors. |
| EMI-proof |
Cases & cables are designed to eliminate EMI (Electro-magnetic
Interference) produced by high voltage of the HID system. |
No EMI protection. May cause severe interference with other electronic
devices e.g. radio, navigation system, etc. in the vehicle. |
