Operation: Reasons why car light bulbs burn out

It may seem strange, but the most common reason why the halogen bulbs in our cars burn out is overvoltage. A normal H7 bulb is designed to last 550 hours. With a defined "normal" voltage of 12.5 volts, a 5% overvoltage already cuts its lifespan in half. This can easily happen if additional or non-original components are installed in our car. On the other hand, if it is subjected to even just a 5% undervoltage, its lifespan doubles. Another enemy of bulbs is shocks, such as forcefully closing the trunk, as the filament can be affected. Of course, this does not happen with xenon bulbs, as they do not have a filament.
