LED Headlights (M8Pro) | Night driving, off-road, universal vehicles | 120W (▲ 2× industry standard 60W) 38,000lm (▲ 2.5× standard 15,000lm) IP68 waterproof (immersion up to 1.5m/30min) 6500K (cool white, ASTM E308) Aluminum heat sink (SAE J2527 compliant) | ▲ Superior brightness Energy-efficient (120W vs 55W halogen) Long lifespan (50,000+ hours) Universal fitment (OE H11/H13/H3/H4) | Higher upfront cost May require professional installation for optimal beam alignment |
Halogen Headlights | Budget vehicles, older models | 55W 1,500lm IP65 waterproofing 5000K (warm white) Glass housing | Inexpensive ($10–$20/unit) Easy to replace Compatible with most vehicles | Low brightness (1/25th of LED) Short lifespan (1,000 hours) Generates more heat (reduces efficiency) |
HID/Xenon Headlights | High-end vehicles, luxury cars | 35W 3,000–5,000lm 3200–6000K (color temperature) Requires ballast | ▲ Brighter than halogen Longer lifespan (2,000+ hours) Modern aesthetic | Expensive ($50–$150/unit) Complex installation (needs ballast) Risk of glare for oncoming traffic |
Incandescent Headlights | Vintage/retro vehicles | 50W 800lm IP54 waterproofing Yellowish light | Extremely cheap ($5–$10/unit) Simple design | ▼ Dimmest option Shortest lifespan (500–1,000 hours) High energy consumption |
Standard LED Headlights | Everyday vehicles | 60W 15,000lm IP67 waterproofing 5000K (neutral white) Plastic housing | Energy-efficient (half power of halogen) Longer lifespan than HID | Lower brightness than high-power LEDs Less durable than aluminum builds (plastic may degrade) |
Adaptive LED Headlights | Luxury/SUVs with smart tech | 100W 25,000lm IP68 + auto-dimming sensors Dynamic beam adjustment | ▲ Auto-adjusts to road conditions Reduces glare for oncoming traffic | Most expensive ($200–$500/unit) Requires advanced vehicle compatibility Higher repair costs |
