Heavy Duty Agricultural HID Lighting Why Use HID's On The Farm?
Lighting on farm machinery is dramatically better than it was a decade ago, and three factors are pushing the switch.
The first factor is the increase in farm size, requiring farmers to work more hours after dark to get their fieldwork done. “More farmers want to run around the clock,” says AGCO's Brett DeVries, product manager specialist for Challenger Combines. “So having good lighting at night is definitely key.”
Another factor is the increase in the size of equipment, says Brian Arntson, product manager for John Deere large row-crop tractors. “As equipment has gotten larger so has the need to see farther ahead and from side to side to keep an eye on today's large field implements,” he says. He explains that improved vehicle designs support additional lighting. For example, electrical system capacities have been increased to support the additional amps required to run more lights.
Finally, field speeds have gone up to around 5 to 7 mph, says Mitch Kaiser, Case IH product manager. “You need light to go further as speeds increase,” Kaiser says.

Heavy Duty Agricultural HID lights
To create high-intensity discharge (HID) light, a chamber is filled with xenon gas, which uses a small electric arch instead of a filament to create a more intense light. The light is up to two-and-a-half times brighter, while consuming 35% less power than a halogen bulb. HID light also lasts up to five times longer than a halogen bulb. HID light is a whiter light, whereas halogen light is more yellow. Studies have shown that the more abundant and natural HID light on farm equipment reduces stress and fatigue in the operators.
Because tractors and other agricultural vehicles run over uneven surfaces, a light source that can withstand large amounts of vibration is important. The xenon capsule does not contain a filament, so it will not come loose or burn out when subjected to extreme movement, unlike a filament that can become dislodged.

Agri-LUX Heavy Duty Agricultural HID BALLASTS
Our ballasts are the most reliable and resilient on the market and also have a lower wattage requirement than others. Agri-LUX HID ballasts are computer controlled so they are less prone to burn outs and surges where other competitors most often fail. Our ballast are also one of the advanced ballast available on the market today. Being only 1 inch thick makes this ballast very easy to install either in a car or motorcycle. With these great features and high quality waterproof connectors Agri-LUX HID has set a new standard in quality.
HID INFORMATION
HID (High Intensity Discharge) refers to lighting technology that relies on an electrical charge to ignite xenon gas contained in a sealed bulb. A normal halogen bulb uses a filament which can burn out in as little as 250 hours. HID bulbs are gas filled capsules that are rated for a life span of 2500-4000 hours and shine brighter using only 35 watts of electricity.
Unlike halogens, HID's emit a type of light that closely resembles natural daylight and is easier on human eyes. In fact, HID lights are currently used in most sports arenas, stadiums, and train stations worldwide. Don't be fooled by lower end Xenon replica bulbs sold at most retail shops. They are no match for the intensity, purity, and efficiency of high intensity discharge headlights. Agri-LUX HID's for the Agricultural in YOU.
