    Isn't that just the safe operating temperature range? And other things like it's safe voltage range, and normal voltage draw, max amp draw and normal amp draw? Seems like something any electrical device should have. I have never owned any HID ballasts though so take that with a grain of salt.

    EDIT: I was beat to it. Darn.

    I think HID bulbs still burn xenon gas. That's what I have always thought though.

    same thing

    High intensity discharge lamps electrify xenon/metal halides, and the excited xenon particles react with the halides and give off energy in the form of light, kinda like neon signs

    HAHA ENGINEER,

    I'm about to go out and take em off and check. They were done by a well know guy on here so I figured he had done them right. Weird thing is all three are exactly the same.
