Are Xenon lights better?

Hi, I would like to know if Xenon lights give better light than standard halogen lights and I would also like to know if Xenon bulbs blow faster than standard please.

Hi Jane,

Xenon lights do offer better visibility thatn standard lights. They provide about three times the light of halogen bulbs. The light is also very much like daylight so it is easy on the eye at night. They generally last around 3,000 hours so you should get 4-5 years out of them, which is longer than halogen bulbs.
