Hall of LOL

[Chris Vu]

i love how you went out of your way to find something that looks like **** and probably performs about as well just to prove a point that its possible--never mind that theres a 1 in 100,000,000 chance its executed properly

where are you getting the idea that i find myself an "electrical engineering god?" because understanding basic electrical theory is high school physics, perhaps? that you dont understand its nigh-on-impossible to pack 70,000v/15-20A/100w worth of electronics in a pack the size of a wallet shows your comprehension of the topic...especially when the smallest ballasts on the market are the same size, but you still need 2.

your one, single counter-example looks like the flea market, cheap, overrated, underperforming asian knockoff it is. googling for hours to find some obscure reference to something trying to prove your point (after saying you were leaving, no less ) is hilarious to me.

so when are you installing that kit? because, clearly, i'm wrong about it.

Lol gg.
HID kits startup require 2.4A at 25V and operate at 0.4A at 85V. Your numbers are outrageous and your credibility is gone. I don't think a simple understanding of high school physics would qualify you to judge a company's products, and the quality of their items. Where you get 70,000V and 20A is beyond me.

But that wasn't even me ? lol.

I'm not gonna argue anymore. Either way I go, it seems like you're ready to shut me down even with reasons that are invalid. Strain relievers being from 80's radioshacks ? Really ? Lol. Quality of the bulbs ? Haha. Oh how I love your irrelevant attempts to prove and bash something. And tell me why 50w is bad ? DDM sells kits that are 55w. Also, the only difference between this ballast and a normal one is the second starter for the second bulb. Otherwise it's the same distribution of power. 2 starters, 2 bulbs, 1 ballast. Not a 2 in 1 like you thought, I don't know where you built up your reputation as some electrical engineering God, but you don't seem like you own up to it as you should. Ban me.

this hall of lol... not try to explain yourself to everyone thread...

any ways, I think we might have a new entry here in the next hr

every single ballast requires different startup current, but good try. cheaper ones require more juice...one headlight goes on, one flickers, etc. another good reason not to use the puny stock wires. try putting 2 cheap ballasts on a 8A power supply and see if they turn on. the ****tier the ballast, the less controlled it is...the more the startup can swing.

i didnt say i stopped learning after high school again, when are they going in your car? dont forget pics.

as for the math, a couple of my ballasts (oem panasonic and koito) say 20000-35000v...doesn't mean it produces it constantly.

The D2 types require a starting pulse. 7 kilovolts may on an average spark through these bulbs, but for reliability you need more, maybe 10 or possibly 12 kilovolts. Automotive use requires ability to restart a hot bulb with the mercury vapor pressure high, and this requires even more voltage - 12 to 15 kilovolts and maybe even more for good reliability. The usual ballasts supposedly produce starting pulse voltages like 18 kilovolts minimum, 20 kilovolts typical.

1 kilovolt = 1000 volts

and for bonus s:

I'm not gonna argue anymore.

dont stop, this is a nominee for hall of lol, for the hall of lol...

edit: nominee for the hall of lawl, IN the hall of lawl

 

[ryan s]

its come full circle for sure.

from asking for help to trying to "school" someone...fantastic. at first i didn't think it was "hall of lawl" worthy, but for the irony alone...it is, 100%

 

[almightyfargoth]

the hall of lol is it's own nominee now
