For about 5 years now, car enthusiasts have been using more and more headlights, where different bulbs are used in the H11 base. And it is not surprising, because the safety of drivers depends on high-quality road lighting. This article provides answers to the questions: "What is an H11 LED lamp and what are their advantages?"
So, first, here are the main advantages of any LED car lamp:
luminous flux temperature;
durability and reliability;
the absence of filaments in the lamp design;
ease of installation of LED lamps;
versatility of LED lamps.
H11 LED lamps are quite widespread among car owners. The base / plinth materials are metal and plastic. The plug is with two contacts. The brightness of the illumination depends on the direction of the light, the types of built-in LEDs. Today you can choose a different shade of white, which will depend on the temperature of the glow.
H11 LED bulbs are installed:
headlights of low beam or high beam;
fog lights.
The assortment includes various options. The website of the TRIALIGHT company will help you choose any lighting equipment. So, some are suitable for decorative glow (white light from LEDs is ideally combined with xenon), others can be used as Daytime Running Lights.
Features of h11 led bulbs
The peculiarities of these lamps are low power consumption and heat dissipation. There are times when incandescent lamps melt a headlight or wiring in a car. The H11 LED bulb does not have this disadvantage. This allows you to mount even in plastic headlights.
The H11 lamp, the photo of which is shown below, is used as a source of the main light and as fog lamps. Today they are the most popular and widely used of all models and types of similar lamps.
The H11 lamp, the photo of which is above, has one thread in its design. Group H11 lamps - flanged lamps. They are classified as this type because they have a clear distance from the flange to the helix. This is essential to ensure that the lighting is correct. Today, many manufacturing companies manufacture a huge number of different types of devices with such a base.
Of course, they all differ from each other in the technologies of the production process, properties and parameters. The average wattage of a standard H11 bulb is about 55 volts. But some manufacturers also produce lamps with higher wattage. The H11 lamp socket is similar to H8 and H9 sockets. The difference between these lamps lies in the power level as well as the types of petals. In foglights, you can easily put H11 xenon lamps with a temperature index of 4300K, 5000K, 6000K.
The choice of H11 low beam lamps certainly depends on the brand of the car, the taste of the owner of the car and the financial possibilities. The first place among sales is taken by the LED H11 lamp, the price of which starts at 1000 rubles. Pricing policy in principle depends on two factors:
manufacturer;
technical indicators.
Modern LED technology has increased the distance and brightness of road lighting. So today there are LED lighting systems for cars that are equipped with adaptive functions. These are mainly H11 lamps with a power of 80 volts. They have special stabilizers in their design. They protect against power surges. In addition, the lamp has a reverse polarity protection mechanism. H11 LED lamp 80W consists of 16 LEDs with chips each with a power of 5W, can be used as DRL (daytime running lights) for better information on the road! The housing of the H11 80W LED lamp is made of aluminum and plastic with competent heat dissipation. The indisputable advantage of the H11 diode lamp is that there is no need for additional blocks or resistors.
LED lamps in cars are a new word in automotive lighting technology. They are often used instead of halogen and xenon light sources. H11 LED bulbs are designed for installation in fog lights and headlights. By their design, they are as close as possible to standard light bulbs.
Poll results
After conducting a consumer survey, it turned out that there are three main reasons for the wide demand for lamps with H11 LEDs.
The first is a high resource of work - a service life of more than 50 thousand hours.
The second is closeness to the design and appearance of an ordinary light bulb, which means easy installation.
The third is the brightness of the luminous flux emitted by the H11 LED lamp.
