HID Kit


I have a P&P kit available for them now.
Right now they are at a reduced price for TYers!
$150 (Reg is $180)

This is complete with Quick Connect Harness, slim ballasts, everything needed to install.

If you would like a set, send me a PM!

Rock :-o
 
What color ranges are offered in this kit? Covers high and low beams correct?
 
We can offer about any color, however...

We did a bunch of testing on the trails with many different lamps & colors.
What we found is that the 4.3K cuts through snow dust the best.
As the color rises the glare off the dust gets worse.

The 4.3K is super white with just a hint of Blue to it.
You can definitely tell they are HIDs, yet they pierce snowdust better than any other color.
They also light up trail depressions much better at night.

Yes, they are Bi-Xenon, meaning both High & Low Beams are HID.

Hope this helps!

I think I'm going to try some Hi Output LED's on this sled...thoughts?
 
LED have come a long way but they need to come along a bit more to match HID. When they do I believe they will be a simple bulb change and your done.
 
Hi Guys!

Sorry I took so long to respond, was working in the Lab yesterday.
(Kinda go into cave mode when working in the Lab, helps to get things done.) lol

9004 bulbs is the vipers ??

Every indication we have right now is that they will be H4s.
The sled is based on the Procross chassis & they use H4s also.

Anything different & we will exchange them. (Unlikely the factory will change them.)

Rock will my Phazer kit from you work in the Viper or will I need to buy another kit?

It should work for you. ;)!

Sled Dog is right on with the first half of his statement, LEDs HAVE come a long way & will eventually take over.
However, they aren't improving THAT fast yet. (Give it 5 years & they will!)

We are testing many different LEDs Lamps/Systems right now.
Can fill you in on some of what we know now.
The frequency responsiveness of the lights to snow remains the same, meaning the higher the K, the more glare you get off the snow dust & surrounding snow.
They require a power supply much like the Ballast on the HIDs, this provides current sensing & limiting to the LEDs. (The power supply is even built into the same cases.)
The power supply increases the LEDs Lumens output & radically increases their lifespan.
(Without the supply, they don't last long.)

There is an odd difference we have found in testing between HIDs & LEDs.
When riding down a trail with stock lamps, depressions look like black holes.
With HIDs, the depressions are lit up & no longer tend to look like Black holes. You can see how deep the depression is! A VERY good thing!
With LEDs, the depressions are Black Holes again. You CANNOT see how deep they are!
We are close to releasing our LED Lighting System, the cost will be lower, yet so is the Lumens output & overall benefits.
The LED Systems DO provide 2x the stock lighting!
HIDs offer 3-4x the stock lighting AND the ability to see INTO depressions in the trail.

Personally, I like to night ride A LOT! :sled1:
The HID lighting benefit at this time is much greater to me. ;)!
However the LEDs provide a good benefit over stock lamps for less money.

Hope this helps!

(PS if you would like to apply to be an on-trail tester for us, send me a PM)
 
My brother is running a LED headlight in his Harley and it is brighter than my stock headlight. Thinking of installing a HID in my bike over the winter what would be the best K color for the highway?
 
From what I have seen anything in the 4.3K - 6K range works well on the road.
(Anything above that and the Lumen output drops pretty quick.)
(Get ahold of me, am testing some for bikes right now.)

Right on I would like the color that is most seen on the highway during the day and gives the best light at night to see critters and deer.
