Well, I am kind of ready to bite the bullet. Seems 300 bucks or about is the range to jump in. I hope to come up with a poor mans way of making an hid battery powered light and make a few bucks too.
From what limited shopping i have done online, seems the cheapest way is to buy a helmet light, 13 watt hid model for 140 bucks with ballast and wiring. Then just make a battery pack for it and do something secret with the head so its an all in one unit.
Step two, buy an h3 hid lamp, use an h3 lamp holder and use the matching ballast/ignitor with it for 200 bucks.
Are there any other ways? I thought about buying a setup from a hardwore store, but then I would need 110 volts where now I just need 14.4 volts.
