Kensun HID Xenon Headlight Conversion Kit
HID lights have a glass chamber of gas, replacing the filament of traditional halogen bulbs. The gas is ignited by a 23,000v charge and stays illuminated by a constant 12v source provided by a ballast which is connected directly to your battery.
Remarkably, HID lights are able to provide greater light output with much less power consumption. Studies show that a 35w HID lamp produces 3 times as much light than a 55w halogen bulb. Also, a halogen bulb uses a continuous power draw of 10-15 amps, while the HID system uses 20 amps for ignition, but then drops to a mere 3 amps during operation (i.e. up to 80% less power during use!).
In addition, the HID headlamp provides longer service life. With no filament to vibrate and fatigue, under normal conditions HID bulbs last roughly 10 times longer than halogen bulbs.
What is HID Color Temperature?
Color temperature is a characteristic of light that is sometimes mistaken as brightness, when it is more closely related to “cool” and “warm” tones of light. Color temperature is a measure in Degrees Kelvin of the hue of a light source, in this case the HID bulb. (The term color temperature actually refers to the color associated with the amount of heat needed to produce that color from an ideal black body.)
It is hard to describe HID colors accurately since many variables such as voltage, type of ballast and the environment can affect color output. Also, color perception is subjective. That said, here is a rough guide to Color Temperatures for HID bulbs:
- 3000K = Yellow
- 4300K = Bright white yellow tinge
- 5000K = Pure white
- 6000K = Bright white (some detect slight blue)
- 8000K = White with blue tinge
- 10000K = Light blue
- 12000K = Blue
- 15000K = Darker Blue (may appear violet)
- 20000K = Blue indigo
- 30000K = Indigo

Bright but poor packaging These lights are super bright I got the 35 w 4300k HUGE DIFFERENCE between these and stock the reason I didn’t rate 5 stars is because of the packaging being terrible , the bulb didn’t fit correctly in the headlight cover and also had to switch the wiring on the harness because only the brights worked it’s definitely not plug and play like it said but they are good and bright..pics listed of before and after pics of low beams and high beams and packaging , the pics of the packaging is exactly…
Short life span bulb but excellent warrant and customer service!! The install is for the most part easy depending on the vehicle. Instructions could be more detailed. The bulbs only lasted me 7 months before they went from 6000k white to about 4500k. The ballasts seem to be functioning perfectly still, which is hard to find in hid kits. Most ballasts are junk. I was a little upset when the lights bulbs started to go back but I sent kensun a simple email with my Amazon order number and told them the issue and the first reply was sent Saturday night at 11pm and…
Awesome I’ve had experience with cheap no brand HID, Xentec HID, high end halogen (Sylvania ZXE) and this is the first time trying these Kensun. They come exactly how it’s pictured. In that aluminum carrying case. The big xenon is a little more tricky than regular HID since you have to get direct power from the battery and ground each light to a metal piece of the car. And you use the stick headlight harness to just activate the included relay. Which also controls the hi/lo beam.Took me…
