REVIEW $24 HID KIT FROM EBAY

  • Опубликовано: 25 сен 2014
  • The initial review of this HID kit seem quite good. The ballast internals are insulated well. The ballast case is all metal. The measured AC voltage is a steady 100VAC. Start up time is about 30 seconds. If this kit last couple of years, then it's a good buy, but of course only time will tell as to the quality of the parts.

    I've got the same kit and it's lasted me over 3 years now going on 4

    I purchased almost 5 kits of 55watt AC HID's from Chinese on-line retailers. All 4 kits was installed into 2 cars and only experienced once that 2 ballasts died simultaneously in less than 1 year. The rest of the ballast are still working without issues. I kept 1 pair of ballast and a few pairs of HID bulbs 8000k's as my spares.

    Great price. Also liked how you test the voltage. Dial2fast your pretty smart. 100 volts is alot. Home voltage i believe is 120. Also I see in your comments that they still work, then I'd say it was good enough quality. 😀

  • @simont3686
    @simont3686 5 лет назад

    The schmoo inside the ballast is not for waterproofing. It is electrical insulation against arcing inside the ballast, because the voltage needed to strike the lamp is so high, it could easily jump a gap of 1cm. If there would be no schmoo, arcing would occur inside the ballast, and it would be destroyed immediatly.

  • @Bosstaudio
    @Bosstaudio 6 лет назад

    I had a few that seemed to be the same quality and they have been working pretty good for me. But I also did add a bit of my own water proofing to it. You also want to make sure the they are securely mounted.

  • @chewsir

    An important piece of information to add is that retro-fit HID kits such as this one are unsafe and illegal. The light pattern causes glare, making it very difficult for drivers in both directions to see the road, vehicles and signs safely. In addition, the uncontrolled light spread make them look really cheap.

  • @KeepersWay
    @KeepersWay 8 лет назад +1

    Seller wasen't making enough money so they cut corners. The casing now is plastic with aluminum back to dissipate heat, 21 dollars though, not sure how the longevity compares.

    @gavmansworkshop5624 8 лет назад

    I bought this product. The plugs should be cut and soldered up I reckon and hopefully that solves the issue with the Hids not starting up on occasion either that or the ballasts are playing up. The seller's were A+ hands down had dramas straight away and they really looked after me the second I said something.

    i was worried about which ones to get so far so good even on the inexpensive sets i'm interested in 55w but i know a seller that has 70w $98 i liked the 6000k diamond white anyhow those look nice and bright in your video i remember hids used to cost $200 plus $300 to install but I refused to pay that price my friends did though i was like for some lights? i'll bring my own kit and let the man install them now i'll install my own

    One should say something about the capacitors. Good long lived capacitors are expensive and they are not the only components that die an untimely death....but in cheap audio and and any other equipment cheap capacitors are definitely the first components to go.

      dial2fast I found a kit very similar to yours www.ebay.com/itm/201443619631 , even the price is dead on 24$. The only beef i got is it isn't advertised as AC, but I'm 99% sure it is. I'm not even gonna bother with messaging the seller since he mostly sells pants and shirts so I'm pretty sure he doesn't know :/

    • @lucho3410
      @lucho3410 7 лет назад +3

      dial2fast $24 for 2 years going on 3?? I'd go for it any day!! People need to remember that DRL (daytime running lights) play a huge factor in HIDs burning out. The ballast aren't made to run on a rapid pulsing mode that DRLs operate in. Keep that in mind before bashing an HID brand

      +Shaharyar Latif Not recommended as it has a lot of glare to on coming traffic.You can add a casper shield to reduce the glare. See how to make one here: ruclips.net/video/-XFYbJn68U0/видео.html

  • @pmm4177
    @pmm4177 8 лет назад

    you get what you pay for, the HID conversion for my gsxr was $250 and the ones for my rx8 are $1200. I'm not saying that $24 isn't good, I'm just saying for $24 what do you expect? I'm not sure I'd even put those on my car, I'd be afraid of damage to my car

    • @stevenmorookian6137

      Yes, they have them. Either a HID with a second bulb attached or some move the bulb mechanically.

  • @lorenguaylg
    @lorenguaylg 10 лет назад +1

    For 25$ a kit it's hard to go wrong with that. definitely chinese made and they probably didn't go thru our rigorous testing for consumers. The Chinese violate human laws then violate our laws by shipping them to anyone. quick story, my lighting supplier had his chinese supplier in one day and I had a chance to see the new product coming in, that's when I found out they were not having them U.L. listed which means I cannot technically install them because they were not tested for safety. is there a cool down for the lights after you have turn them off before they turn back on?

    • @dial2fast
      @dial2fast  10 лет назад

      Automotive accessories such as these have little quality control. You just hope the product was designed well enough that it won't die in weeks or months. After much looking, even the $60 - $80 China HID kits are a hit or miss when it comes to durability. With my test in the video, I did let them cool down before turning them back on in the demonstration you saw. Overall this kit performed well, but time will tell if it stays this way.

My friends hid kit ballasts died in less then 6 months and spent more then a 100.00 down the drain. the "owner " on the phone was so ignarant dealing with the matter they didnt even want to pay for the shipping to help with the loss of costs. He said the company should be renamed fuck tech and sadly i agree.
