Sylvania D2S HID Capsule
Name:
Sylvania D2S HID Capsule
Short Description:
D2S is short for ''discharge second generation shielded''. These are found in vehicles that have projector headlamps with a light shield. You can spot a D2S capsule by looking at the glass - if there is no metal shielding around the glass, you have a D2S. Povides about 10% more light than the identical D2R bulb. Unlike halogen incandescent lamps, the OSRAM/Sylvania lamp does not have a filament. Instead, it creates light from an electrical discharge between two electrodes in a micro-environment of xenon gas, mercury, and metal halide salts that are hermetically sealed in a tiny quartz capsule. The arc tube is encased in a glass jacket to filter ultraviolet rays. The light is emitted by an electrically energized gas -- a plasma discharge -- formed and sustained between two electrodes. The Luminarc system includes an electronic ballast that controls the arc ignition process and sustains the arc in normal operation. 4100K Replacement capsule for HID systems that call for a D2S capsule Includes capsule only and not the igniter 4100k is the ONLY OEM HID color temperature Price is for a single capsule
