Alright, the curiosity got the best of me (and killed a cat), I wonder if Osram PowerBall ceramic metal halide rated for 35 Watts (or should I go for 20 Watts one?) will do in Cyclops Thor X Colossus spotlight. (I suppose the diffused arc tube made of Aluminum Oxide would spread the light around as to suit the reflector without having to fumble with it too much trying to find the sweet spot.)
Since Cyclops Thor is going to be modified with both Bioenno Power 12 Volts 6 Amps / hour Lithium Iron Phosphate battery pack and a 35 Watts HID conversion kit, I felt this group (Homemade and Modified Flashlight Discussion) may be appropriate - if not, I may request to have this thread moved to HID thread.
If the Osram PowerBall ceramic metal halide can be used with automotive HID ballast (which it should be fine, although I had to ask as there bound to be somebody on here who have attempted this), alright, I can go ahead and modify the H4 Halogen base ripped off from a discarded Halogen bulb to accommodate the Halogen G4.5 bulb socket so this bulb can be used therein.
