An electrical and lights relater question

[Pantelis Giamarellos]

Dear Fellow AUDIphiles,

Through the Land Rover discussion forum I have been advised of a system for
improving (actually increasing) the amount of output of the lighting system
of conventional bulbs equipped cars.

Namely this system increases the voltage from 12V to 24V but the current is
not continuous but intermittent at around 2000 times per second.

According to the information that was quoted this system lets the filement
inside the bulb (working with tungsten and halogen lamps) cool down as much
as it is required so that it does not burn from the increase Voltage but
lets the lamps produce far more light than before. A number of turning a 60W
lamps to the lighting equivalent of 180W (YES 180W) was quoted.

There is no need to replace stock wiring, no need to increase the output of
the alternator and the only drawbacks is the propose to change the lamps to
new ones of the same type since as they quoted the used lamps store the kind
of voltage that they were running at and when the higher voltage passes
through them they burn, but this does not happen with the new ones (same
wattage as the old ones). Another slight drawback is the increase in the
operating temperature inside the lighting cluster and the mirrors but this
goes up at around 30% more which is any case happens when we increase the
wattage of our stock lamps from 55 or 60W to 80, 100 or more Watts.

So the question goes. Does this sound like a working and theoriticaly sound
system?

Cost is around 130 pounds including all taxes but no carriage. Group
purchase of ten or more systems brings the price down to 110 pounds same as
above.

I am considering buying a kit for my cars (do now know at which one to mount
it first) but I would appreciate your input.

Take care

it and wrote to me about it.
