i blew my HID

okay guys i need to find a replacement bulb... but its for a hanabi kit 6000k kit for the H4 lighting system... anyone have ANY idea where i can get a replacement??? thanks

Use Google, it works wonders. Here is a search for your bulb.Certified Security Specialist

Always check info with a digital multimeter.

I promise to be good.

Tell Darwin I sent you.

I've been sick lately, sorry I won't be on much.

okay i hooked up my hid kit and had to put diodes so that the hi-low beam would put out power to the ballast when the switch is flipped... and then suddenly the light went out andd i smelled burnt rubber.. the diode melted in half right at the middle... does anyone know why this happened??? was it too much urrent??? the headlight harness puts out about 12v constant current...

Did it specifically say to put a diode inline? What size diode did you use, 1, 3 ,or 6 amp? What is the current draw of the hid lights?Certified Security Specialist

the draw on the hid said 35w... and it is less than the 55w that a normal headlight produces... as for the didode im pretty sure it was a 3 amp...

1N4001 @50 volts up to 1N4007 @1000 volts = 1 amp1N5400 @50 volts up to 1N5408 @1000 volts = 3 ampD620 @200 VDC, D660 @600vdc, P600M @1000VDC = 6 amp========================================================1N4001 = 50 VDC = 1 AMP1N4002 = 100 VDC = 1 AMP1N4003 = 200 VDC = 1 AMP1N4004 = 400 VDC = 1 AMP1N4005 = 600 VDC = 1 AMP1N4007 = 1000 VDC = 1 AMPRegardsEVIL Teken . . .

I'm sorry but that totally doesn't make any sense to me. RegardsEVIL Teken . . .

my hid kit is not a dual beam... so that means that it will need feed from both the high beam and low beam... when u flick the high beams on and off the hid will just stay the same...

still can't find the replacement bulb for the kit.. i will take a pic of it later....

So you have basically attempted to wire the HID as your regular running lights. And your Hi-beams from your standard halogen bulbs to one another. The current draw is too high... I would suggest to you that you wire each light fixture seperately to turn on independantly. The same effect will be there. Both on when you wish it. Regards EVIL Teken . . .
