Hi guys, I'm glad you all brought up this Bi-Xenon subject. There is nothing wrong with our Bi-Xenon. If there is we will be more than glad to replace it with a working bulb.
Due to there are many car manufacturers out there we simply just can't make one product to fit all. What we did do is add on the diodes and jump cables to have an universal fit. Some cars will require to reverse the diodes, others require to remove the jump cable, and some requires to reverse the diodes and remove the jump cables. The above only applies to the H13 Bi-Xenon. 9007 Bi-Xenon is less complicated compare to H13.
9007 Bi-Xenon only requires a control wire and no diodes and jump cable involved.

you wouldnt have a problem with them stickin on high beam. the bulbs normal position is the low, and it has to kick up to the high. We are having issues getting a bulb to move into the high beam positions. The lows work perfectly fine.

I got the bixenon because i did want high and low in HID but after the complications with the bulbs, i would just as soon do a normal no high beam HID or one with halogen high beams.
I am also having a bit of trouble aiming them. My lows are aimed prefecly but when i switch to high beams they seem to shoot way too high.

I did some more tinkering yesterday with the harness. It wasnt the harness itself but the extension that is on the small wire. Once that was removed (both lights) my problems have now ceased to exist, bulbs move freely. I didnt get time to put a meter on it to see if there was a voltage drop will try and do it today.

I think im going to get my voltage reader and try to figure out why it sticks.
The motor behind the HID Bi-Xenon bulb moves it up and down. The diodes and jump cables controls the polarity setting. The low beam will be on regardless if the polarity setting is incorrect. Only the high beam will not function properly when the polarity setting is incorrect.

Daytime running lights are mandatory in the People's Republic of Canadastan. Can I install your kit on a Canadian F-150? Does it default to running low beams?

Might be wrong here, but you'll have to bypass the DRL relay, and run them on "full power." I don't think HIDs would work with less voltage than "normal" voltage.

ya you will just have to turn your lights on the manual way or by-pass the DRL relay so that they do see the full power.

Daytime running light will effect the HIDs. Sometimes it will make the HID flicker and sometimes it will be fine. So far the only way to fix this is to have your HID headlights on all the time when regardless if it's day or night.
I won't suggest installing HID in your F150 when daytime running lights are mandatory in Canada.

XenonLink,

Just a suggestion. I don't really know what HID's are so I clicked your link and even there I couldn't find any info on why I would want them or really what they are.

You may want to put something up explaining the reasons to upgrade to HID's.

Also maybe some drop down boxes so I would know which kit to buy.

I'm not in marketing or anything though so what do I know?

Just thought I'd share.

Are you guys tired of the same old story from the HID seller on the forum? Excuses for why something isn’t working! Well I’d like to introduce our company… www.xenonking.com. We guarantee that your F150 will work smoothly with our BI-XENON KIT. Our kit comes with a CANCELLER KIT that eliminates the flickering (GUARANTEED!) that all these cheap hid kits cause. DO NOT BUY HID KITS from just any old joe. We’ve been in business for 7 years!

I've seen that there have been a lot of people offering HID kits for the F150 at LOW prices, so we've decided to offer our fellow F150 members an even bigger discount off of our kits...

Others are selling generic kits for as low as $100, but only limited K temps are available and there is no REAL warranty included. We're offering two of the most popular brands in the market for over $100 LESS THAN OUR WEBSITE PRICES ONLY TO F150 MEMBERS!

OUR KITS come with a 2 YEAR WARRANTY!

VisionPro
$280 for Bi-Xenon kit with Canceller (eliminates flickering)

McCulloch
$330 for Bi-Xenon kit with Canceller (eliminates flickering)


we offer K temps 5K-12K, the lower the Kelvin the brighter the light, the higher the Kelvin the more color intensity....

5K- Bright white with slight yellowish hue
6K- Diamond White (most similar to OEM)
8K- White with blue tint
10K- Deeper Blue than 8K
12K- Deep violet

Both McCulloch & VisionPros kits are Plug & Play and very easy to install, no modifications are necessary to the vehicle. Quality wise the two brands are very similar, they are both Japanese made.

The VisionPro kits have integrated ballasts with the built in igniters, the McCullochs have the igniters separate from the ballasts.

If anyone is interested in ordering...please send the amount above to paypal@xenonking.com through your paypal account or you can call us directly at 877-HID-KITS and order it over the phone through any debit/credit card. All pictures can be seen on www.xenonking.com Please don't forget, we are here to make you happy, so all questions are welcome. Thank you for your time guys. We appreciate the business and look forward to speaking with you.

Regards,
Brandon D.

If anyone has any questions, needs help deciding what kit they need, or would like to order, feel free to contact me by email or by phone 24/7.

Those are expensive. The only way I'd consider them is with a lifetime warranty.


Not to mention that it's pretty low of you to post that here in XenonLink's thread. You would have been better off leaving it to that new thread you created...

i am posting messages to save you money in the long run. you guys have to understand that when buying an hid kit its like buying a TV. you dont buy by price, but by brand. All these hid kits you guys both are generic chinese kits that wont work in the long run. all these vendors offering "lifetime warranty" are phonies. they have been in business for a few months and are promising you the world. our kits are japanese made and come with a "realistic" 2 year warranty. how can i offer you a lifetime warranty if anyday a company can go out of business. We have been in business for 7 years. Our kits are top quality. if you see our kits next to the generic stuff you guys are paying 100$ for you'll understand!

I bought mine from DDM and their website says they've been in business since 2001, which would make them a year older than you. That's besides my point, though. My point was that this thread was created to promote XenonLink's product. You're more than welcome to post here, and technically you can post anything you want. Advertising in his thread, however, shows poor etiquette and business. It's like Chevy salesmen going into the Ford lot and trying to persuade customers to buy their trucks.

Not to mention I've already seen three instances where you posted that exact same thing. I can understand you promoting your product but doing it in Will's thread shows lack of judgment, IMO. Maybe it's just me...

I'm not trying to fight you and I'm not protecting DDM. You're bashing other companies, though. If these other companies weren't legit they wouldn't be in business very long. IMO your site looks no better than DDMs. You say their website looks as if it's run by a child. That's quite ironic because you bad-talking other companies the way you are is extremely childish in itself.
