USES

 

Xenon, like the other noble gases, is used for various things.  It is used specifically in lighting.  Xenon can also be used in flash cameras and “high-intensity” lamps for projecting movies.

It has most recently been used to replace the halogen in the headlights.  Xenon was found to be more efficient and brighter.  The xenon bulbs are expected to last about 2000 hrs as opposed to the 400hr life expectancy of the normal halogen bulbs.    New HID Xenon      Halogen Bulb
