Blub Motorcycle Universal Signals Blinker Directional Reverse LED

There are three main types of motorcycle bulbs: halogen lamps, xenon lamps and LED lamps. The following is a detailed description of them:
Halogen bulbs
Working principle: Halogen substances are injected into the bulb, and the tungsten filament is heated by electric current to emit light. During the light-emitting process, the tungsten filament heats up and sublimates, and the halogen substance can react chemically with the sublimated tungsten, so that the tungsten returns to the tungsten filament, thereby extending the service life of the tungsten filament.

Features
Advantages: Cheap price, easy to obtain accessories; Strong penetrating power, can illuminate the road well in rainy and foggy weather, and automobile fog lights also often use bulbs of this color temperature; It is relatively easy to pass during the annual vehicle inspection.
Disadvantages: The brightness is relatively low, and the lighting effect may not be good in places without street lights or dim light; The heat generation is large, and long-term use will increase the temperature of the lamp holder and lampshade; The service life is short, generally only about 600 hours; The light emitted is yellowish, not bright and eye-catching enough.
Applicable scenarios: Suitable for daily riding in environments with good lighting conditions such as urban areas, and motorcycle users who do not have particularly high requirements for light brightness.

Xenon bulb
Working principle: The 12-volt power supply on the vehicle is instantly increased to 23,000 volts through a supercharger. In the UV-resistant crystal quartz glass tube, high-voltage pulse electricity is applied to the metal electrode filled with xenon and other substances, which stimulates its ionization to produce bright light.

Features
Advantages: Very high brightness, the brightness of a 35W xenon bulb can reach 3.5 times that of a 55W halogen bulb, the illumination distance is far, and it can provide a wider field of view; the service life is 8-10 times longer than that of a halogen lamp, about 2,000 hours; the efficiency of converting electrical energy into light energy is high, and it has a high energy density and light intensity.
Disadvantages: extremely high heat generation, after lighting for 20 minutes, the temperature can reach 300-400 degrees, which can easily burn the yellow lamp bowl or even the lamp holder; the price is higher than halogen bulbs; very power-consuming, which can easily cause the battery to run out of power; slow startup, 5-15 seconds of delay to reach the highest brightness; need to install a ballast, and the modification takes up more space; during the annual vehicle inspection, there is a high probability that it will not pass.
Applicable scenarios: suitable for motorcycle users who often ride at night or drive on dark roads, such as long-distance motorcycle travel enthusiasts, but they need to pay attention to related issues of installation and use.

LED bulb
Working principle: using the characteristics of light-emitting diodes, when current acts on the chip through the wire, electrons are pushed to the P area, where electrons and holes recombine, and then emit energy in the form of photons, thereby realizing the conversion of electrical energy to visible light.

Features
Advantages: extremely low heat generation, less heat dissipation pressure compared to halogen lamps and xenon lamps; high brightness, not much different from xenon headlights; very little power consumption, only one twentieth of halogen lamps, less damage to batteries; ultra-long life, up to 100,000 hours; fast response speed, can be lit instantly after power on; wide range of use, can be used for driving lights, turn signals, brake lights, headlights and other lamps.
Disadvantages: relatively high price; high heat dissipation requirements, if the heat dissipation is poor, excessive temperature can easily shorten its life; some LED bulbs have astigmatism problems, need to pay attention to the design and adjustment of lamps, or choose products with good focusing effect.
Applicable scenarios: suitable for motorcycle users who pursue high brightness, energy saving and long life, especially suitable for urban commuting and short-distance riding, and gradually become the preferred light source for many motorcycle manufacturers.
