costco halogen spotlight

[kife]

I wasn't able to find much info on the net about this, so I decided to try posting here.

The costco here (in hawaii) is selling a $35 halogen spotlight from Ultimate Illumination Laboratories, 55 watt h3. There is a link to a manual in the link below.

Is it possible to just swap out the bulb with an HID light? How much would one cost?

You would need a ballast, HID's use a lot more voltage, 10kv+

That's the same light being discussed in this thread only not a HID.Picture in post 3.

I would order the HID version of that same light since it's available and not bother with the incan. A conversion could run you up another $100 or so plus your time.

I think it's a great looking light!

He could get some eBay HID kits and build two of these for that $100.

Is that because they come two units in each kit or can you also purchase a single unit for $50?

He's better off waiting for the HID version.I paid $50.00 U.S.for mine(only $15.00 more than the incan version) Strange that the HID version is available in Canada and Australia and not in the US!
