HID COLOR TEMPERATURE FAQ (Kelvin Rating)

Color Temperature is a measurement in Degrees Kelvin that indicates the hue of a specific type of light source. Many people believe the misconception that colour temperature is a rating of the brightness of the bulb or HID kit. This belief is completely false. The reality of the matter is that the higher the colour temperature, the less use able light output you will obtain. A perfect example would be a black light. This light has a colour temperature of approx 12,000k and has almost no useable light or lumens output. Our Xtreme Xenon HID Conversion kits are available in a wide range of colour temperatures to suit each individual application. Our Xtreme Xenon HID Conversion kits are available in 4300k HID, 5000k HID, 6500k HID, 8000k, and 3000k Yellow HID

3000k HID Kits: Yellow HID output - Ideal for fog light HID upgrades
