Halogen is still active

I have tried many things, including external with Color and Valve, but the OEM Halogen light is the easiest to use and I returned it.
Nowadays, LEDs are used in new cars, and Halogen light is still old-fashioned, like the Image of old.
But when I looked into it, I realized that it is quite practical.
The first time the project was completed, the project was completed.

Halogen light
A type of white light bulb that generates heat by passing an electric current through a tungsten filament (resistance) and emits light by blackbody radiation due to high temperatures of up to 3,000 degrees Celsius. 。 The difference is that Halogen gas is sealed inside the valve in addition to inert gas.

Features,
Smaller in size than white light bulbs
● Light is stronger than white-hot bulbs, and gets considerably hotter.
It is used in situations that require spot light intensity, and is also used in Stage lighting due to its strong light emission. 。 In addition, the brightness and color temperature rarely change while the power is on and the lights are turned on.
→Easily adopted for Motorcycle and Car headlights.

Advantages of Halogen bulb
Long life. →.
In a white light bulb, Tungsten, which is the filament, evaporates and becomes thinner as it is used, and at the same time, the evaporated Tungsten adheres to the glass surface called Valve and turns black, resulting in a decrease in illumination. 。 In contrast, Halogen bulbs have a longer life than white-hot bulbs because evaporated Tungsten returns to TungstenFilament by HalogenCycle using Halogen gas added in the Valve.

2) High brightness →.
Superior heat resistance and higher temperatures than typical White Heat bulbs, allowing for higher voltage and higher luminance 。

(3) High heat and shock resistance→.
Quartz glass is used in the valve to handle high temperatures. Quartz glass is made from quartz and is characterized by its excellent heat resistance, impact resistance, and transparency. 。 As for heat resistance, thermal expansion is very small, making it resistant to sudden changes in temperature.

[Characteristics
Halogen light is inexpensive and has good transparency.
The brightness of halogen bulbs is inferior to HIDs and LEDs, Soft luminescence that does not dazzle when looked directly at." features.
Halogen light is more transparent and easier to be detected by others when it rains heavily. However, Halogen bulbs do not illuminate the road surface more than necessary, so there is a Merit that allows driving with sufficient visibility even in the rain.
Halogen will always pass the safety standards required for vehicle inspections, etc.

OEMs are required to meet safety standards, etc. [Color] I decided to try Halogen light, which is used by OEMs if you are going to buy it, since it is shipped in a CLEAR condition.
I was also convinced that practical cars with Halogen attached are still working in the market.

good point
Easy to drive at night. ◎Easy to drive at night.

◎No reflection of the road surface.

◎Visibility there even in bad weather.

◎Low cost. ◎Low cost, yet meets safety standards.

◎Bulbs are hard to burn out.

◎Do not bother the car in front of you or oncoming traffic.

A bad point
▲Image is often viewed with the prejudice that it was a long time ago.

Halogen head lamps are inexpensive to purchase and easy to replace.
The disadvantage is that the brightness is weaker than DischargeHead lamps and LEDHead lamps, but there are many Merits to continue using them in terms of safety standards, cost performance, and convenience. View detail
