Message	:be useful in the high beams... Wait for LED technology to progress to the point of 55-65 watt output as they output full intensity almost instantly. My Mazda 3 came with HID Zenon lights and they reach full power instantly. I'm looking for that kind of behavior for my HIDs. Are these the super expensive HID ballasts? I also read that the ignitor will give a burst of power to light up the bulb full power. Anyone know were can we find these? Thanks
