They produce light when an electrical current passes through their tungsten filament. With the help of a small amount of halogen gas, the filament heats up and emits light.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Halogen bulbs can get as hot as 1300&#8457;. Because of this, it&rsquo;s important to never touch the bulbs with your bare hands especially after they&rsquo;ve been in use. The natural oils from your skin can cause the bulb to break, especially when it&rsquo;s hot. For your own safety, use disposable latex or nitrile gloves when replacing your vehicle&rsquo;s bulbs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"article-search-widget\">\n<div class=\"cp-search\">\n<div align=\"center\">\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cld.partsimg.com\/image\/upload\/w_auto,dpr_auto\/carparts\/logos\/badge_wordmark\/full_color\/CP_LOGO_COLOUR_RGB\" alt=\"CarParts.com\" width=\"300\" height=\"56\">\n<\/div>\n<form id=\"cpsearchform\" name=\"cpsearchform\" action=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/search\" method=\"get\" target=\"_blank\" accept-charset=\"character_set\" aria-label=\"search CarParts.com\">\n    <input type=\"text\" class=\"keyword\" name=\"q\" placeholder=\"Search for parts on CarParts.com\" value=\"\" aria-label=\"Search CarParts.com\"><input type=\"submit\" class=\"btn-search\" value=\"Search\" aria-label=\"Search\">\n<\/form>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">HID Bulbs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Also known as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/everything-you-need-to-know-about-xenon-headlights\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"xenon lights\">xenon lights<\/a>, high-intensity discharge (HID) bulbs are crisper and brighter than halogen lights. Unlike most electrical bulbs, HID lamps don&rsquo;t use a filament. Instead, they have two electrodes inside a tube filled with xenon gas. When an electrical discharge passes between the electrodes, the HID bulb creates a light so bright it appears bluish white.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Compared to halogen bulbs, xenon bulbs produce more light with less heat. HID headlights can convert 70% of their energy into light, with only 30% turning into heat. This makes them more efficient and less likely to overheat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">LED Bulbs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/led-bulb\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Light-emitting diode (LED) bulbs\">Light-emitting diode (LED) bulbs<\/a> are the most energy efficient among the different types of bulbs. They also work over 250 times faster than halogen bulbs. This is why you&rsquo;ll find plenty of vehicles with LED headlights, tail lights, and brake lights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>LED bulbs can reach a temperature of around 140&deg;F to 212&deg;F, but it can vary depending on the bulb. Vehicles with LED headlights usually have heat sinks or cooling fans to regulate the heat and minimize the chances of overheating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/led-car-headlight-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"illuminated LED headlight of a white car\" class=\"wp-image-84687\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/led-car-headlight-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/led-car-headlight-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/led-car-headlight-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/led-car-headlight-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/led-car-headlight-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/led-car-headlight-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/led-car-headlight.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><figcaption>LED bulbs are the most energy efficient among the different types of bulbs, and can reach a temperature of around 140&deg;F to 212&deg;F, but it can vary depending on the bulb.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Car Light Bulb FAQ<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1685409485332\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">Are There Light Bulbs That Don&rsquo;t Get Hot?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">All light bulbs get hot, including LED bulbs. However, how much heat they produce will vary greatly depending on several factors including bulb type, wattage, and length of time it&rsquo;s turned on. For instance, while LED lights don&rsquo;t produce a lot of heat, you&rsquo;ll most likely still find them a little warm after using them for a long time.&nbsp;<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1685409493863\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What Are the Negative Effects of Hot Vehicle Lights?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Too much heat can cause your headlights and tail lights to dim, flicker, or just perform poorly in general. Halogen bulbs and HID bulbs burn out faster than LED bulbs because they reach higher temperatures. Excessive heat can also damage the parts surrounding the bulbs. Thankfully, this isn&rsquo;t usually a problem for LED headlights since they don&rsquo;t get hot enough to melt the plastic housing.&nbsp;<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1685409506109\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">How Often Should Light Bulbs Be Replaced?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">How often you need to change your vehicle&rsquo;s light bulbs will depend on the bulb&rsquo;s lifespan, which can vary on its type, brand, and how often you use it. For instance, if you have halogen headlights, you&rsquo;ll most likely have to replace them more often. Most halogen bulbs only last around 450 to 1,000 hours.&nbsp;<br><br>Meanwhile, HID bulbs can last longer at an average of 2,000 hours. LED bulbs have the longest lifespan of 11,000 hours. This can be more convenient if you don&rsquo;t want to replace your vehicle lights often.&nbsp;<br><br>Cleaning your vehicle lights, their heat sinks, and cooling fans can also help extend their lifespan. You can check your owner&rsquo;s manual for more information about maintaining your vehicle lights.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where to Get Halogen Bulbs for Your Vehicle<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dealing with burned-out <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/headlight-bulb\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"headlight bulbs\">headlight bulbs<\/a> can be frustrating.
