i guess i will take a sec to elaborate
having a HID completely exposed without a lens or filter to cut the brightness of the light IN a high beam position is going to lift the light higher then your normal driving lights essentially lifting the beam higher off the road that is directly in front of you and further down into the distance BECAUSE of how the projected angle of the lower reflectors are positioned.

i know the difference in K and how it all works. i have 3 salt water aquariums. 2 of the tanks have 20k (MH) metal highlights in them and the 3rd tank has 10k MH in it... the 10 k is WAY brighter then the 20k. BUT the 20k project deeper through the water giving the tanks a deep blue ocean look
Anyone who has to say retard, fuxing tard and idiot in the same sentence .....

hmmm, i saw a H3 coming down the street the other night with what looked like a shooting STAR coming out of his headlights, lol! he had to be running 12 or 20k, probably 20k. i'm also going to assume he's driving all four lights at 100 ballast driven watts, because while the kelvin temperature is off the charts in the Z community, it isn't if you put enough power behind it. basically he lights up the entire neighborhood, lol, and the color is not hurtfully blinding like 8k is at that intensity... it's bright, but with a green hue.
