KC Hilites HID high intensity discharge lighting. Available in Long Range, Flood, Driving and Fog light designs. Choose from Stainless, Black and chrome housing. Built on the same Metal Halide lighting concept used to illuminate giant sports complexes, KC HID lights turn night into day. KC HID's produce a light output more than four times the amount of any other light source available, and our rugged solid state HID components will withstand the most severe conditions. The benefits are tremendous: Whiter light output, minimal amp draw, higher efficiency and much longer bulb life. This makes driving at night easier, safer and if you are racing much faster! Our ballasts have been designed to function at voltages ranging from 9V to 16V for automotive as well as commercial and industrial applications. 24V systems are also available.
- KC HID's are now available in: 5", 6" or 8" round and 6" x 9" rectangular. Finishes: Polished Stainless Steel, Chrome or Black Powder Coat
- Sold in a complete system (1 pair lights and wiring) or 1 single light. Each light or pair of lights includes:
- HID Light(s), Ballast with plug-in terminals, Fully assembled, pre-terminated wiring harness with weather proof plug connectors for a long service life and real easy installation
- In-dash or under dash mount L.E.D. Switch. Distinctive KC light cover(s) that shows you understand what the latest in lighting technology means.
- All KC HID lights are factory serviced and covered by the KC HiLITES 23-year warranty.

4 Types of Lighting Driving Lights: are a must-have improvement over stock headlights, burning brighter and penetrating farther through the night. Flood Lights: produce vertical as well as horizontal light to illuminate a broad area directly in front of the light source. These lights are great for lighting up a work area or for use as auxiliary back up lights. Fog Lights: throw a wide, low beam to get under extreme weather conditions. Long Range Lights: (for off road applications) complete the performance lighting picture, throwing high intensity light that projects up to 1 and 1/2 miles. |

Types of Lighting: What's the difference between the types of light patterns?
We basically have 4 different types of light patterns: Driving - Flood - Fog - Long Range

KC Hilites Wiring Questions:
Does the white wire have to be connected? Yes, the white wire has to be connected to a 12-volt source.
This circuit allows the switch to activate the relay, which draws power from the battery to the lights. If you do not want your KC's to be activated with your High or Low beam lights, then you can use your fuse box or your battery as an alternative 12-volt source.What is covered under warranty? We proudly warranty all of our products against failure for a period of 23 years. If a housing or reflector begins to rust, if a switch fails, if a cover fades from the sun - we even warranty all of our bulbs against burnout. Exclusions are abuse and damage caused by accidents. See our Warranty Statement.
What is the Amp draw of my KC lights? Amp draw is a simple mathematical calculation. Divide the total number of watts by the system's volts. For example, a 100-watt bulb in a 12-volt system will draw 8.3 amps.
(100w / 12v = 8.3a)
What is the purpose of using a relay? Using a relay keeps the high current portion of the circuit away from the switch and pulls the current directly from the battery to your KC's. The relay also allows you to tie your lights into a secondary 12-volt circuit such as your high/low beams or ignition.
Identify Your KC Lights: How do I identify which lights I have? Most all of our lights have the letters KC and a 4-digit number on the Lens, which can be used to identify which type of light you have. By comparing the shape and size of your light to the light Series pictured in the Replacement Parts section of our web site, you can select the matching Series and find the 4-digit Lens number in the chart to determine which light you may have and the replacement parts available for that light.
