If the engine is the heart of the car, then the headlight is the eye of the car. Since it is the eye, the importance of the headlight is self-evident. It not only affects the external beauty, but also is closely related to the driving safety. Therefore, for the majority of car owners, it is necessary to choose a lamp with the highest cost performance. Generally speaking, headlights are divided into halogen headlights, hernia headlights and LED headlights

Halogen headlights, xenon headlights and LED headlights. LED lamp has been popular in recent two years, but because of its high cost, the popularity rate of LED lamp is far less than halogen lamp. The advantages of this kind of headlamp are low energy consumption, long service life and fast lighting speed. Compared with halogen lamp, LED lamp not only has higher brightness, but also saves 1 / 20 of energy consumption. In addition, LED lamp is safer and more reliable than hernia lamp. It only needs 12V power supply to work normally, while hernia lamp needs tens of thousands of volts.

The biggest advantage of xenon headlight is its high brightness, which can be more than three times of halogen lamp. What's more, the xenon lamp emits blue and white light, with a longer exposure distance, which can make the driver's field of vision clearer and more eye-catching, which is conducive to improving driving safety. However, compared with halogen lamp, the installation of hernia lamp is more complex, and it is more difficult for non professionals to dismantle and repair.

Halogen lamp is not bright enough, but daily use is enough. Xenon lamp and LED lamp have better lighting effect, but it is very dangerous to drive in rainy and foggy days, so it is unnecessary to spend money to upgrade the headlight. Halogen lamp, which has the lowest cost and the widest application, is basically used in domestic car models. To sum up, most car owners prefer low-cost but usable halogen lamps.
