To comply with new laws on reducing energy usage, fluorescent and HID lighting systems — both examples of arc discharge lamps — have become more complex and varied in their performance. To understand ...

High Intensity Discharge (HID) lighting does not use the filament that is commonly found in normal automotive or motorcycle light bulbs. Instead, the bulb is filled with Xenon gas. The gas is ignited ...

More than 105 million high-intensity discharge (HID) lamps, ranging from 20W to 2,000W in size, are now in use in a broad range of interior and exterior applications in the United States. HID lighting ...

Electronic HID (high intensity discharge lamp) ballasts: how they work, how to control them, and develop an electronic ballast solution for outdoor lighting applications. Hbrightness metal halide ...

High Intensity Discharge (HID) headlamps that produce a bluish white beam of light are common on luxury cars today. They operate at higher voltages than traditional headlamps and use xenon gas for ...

With all of the excitement surrounding LEDs these days, one might say high-intensity discharge (HID) lamps are out of the limelight. But though LEDs get most of the headlines, HID sources are still ...

With the industry spotlight focused intensely on LEDs, HID(high-intensity-discharge) lighting is still widely used for many outdoorarchitectural and general-purpose lighting applications. These lamps ...
