Can my HID get brighter by changing fuse?

so recently i bought a HID kit cost me 80 bucks, 60 for shipping, 18 for the actual kit.


so it%26#039;s 8000k, plug and play,


my car is Acura 1.6 EL 1997


first week with these lights, they%26#039;re pretty bright and nice


some reason, they%26#039;re getting darker, and one side starts to have some %26quot;shaking light%26quot; problem, and i don%26#039;t kno why


i read the manual , they said can upgrade the light brightness by changing to the 20 amp fuse, and appearntly there is a 50 hours break in time, before it gets to the brightest point





so i wanted to changed the fuse, my friend helped me and he found out the one i have is already 30 amp,


so question is would they get brighter by changing from 30 to 20?


thanks everyone|||Lowering the value of the fuse will most likely result in no light, as the lower rating will open the fuse.





You may need to rewire with a larger wire from the fuse box to the lamps. A larger wire introduces less resistance in the circuit, allowing a greater voltage and current to reach the lamps.





See the link for an excellent overview of automotive lighting tech.|||probably just a poor set of ballasts or bulbs, the wiring going in can be minimal gauge, the wiring in the kit should be enough to power the bulbs.





The fuse will change nothing.|||no, its just for protection incase something would go wrong the fuse would blow instead of wiring burning up|||No.
