Is it possible to put a HID bulb into a 12V spotlight? If so what bulb? I have a 135Watt 12V 2stage spotlight that I got from Sam's Culb. It has a 7Amp Battery and I think it would have a lot of potential with a HID. Any sudjestions?

Short answer absolutely. There's so many choices to list but a popular solutions is the 35W D2S Xenon automotive HID bulb overdriven with with a 50W Xenon ballast. I believe 4100k is the brightest color temperature.

What do the ballasts and starters do and are they expensive? The spotlight I got was only $20 and I tought it would be fun to upgrade it, however I don't want to spend too much.
