Life of Xenon lamps.... Posted by MI-Roger [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Re: Try this source...., Blasz, Tue, 28 Oct 2008 22:39:30 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I hadn't considered that possibility, but the site I referenced did identify lamp life at 2,000 to 4,000 hours. 4,000 hours at 60mph equates to 240,000 miles or pretty much the lifetime of a car.
But the biggest killer of all types of lamps is start-up, and with DRL's that cannot be easily turned off (or can't be turned off at all!) short trips will result in short lamp life due to the high number of car starts during the car's lifetime.
