I am buying a scuba HID cannister light for both diving and as a backup light for my snowmachine. For the snowmachine the light would be used in temperatures from -40F to +40F. I can't use an automotive light because the machine is pull start and has no electrical system. Dealer says the bulbs in it are special purpose AC lights. I am concerned about functionality and durability in the snowmachine environment.
I've seen web site ads for the HID's used on mountain bikes. But those aren't also dive lights. Given the costs involved I'd like to use one light for both applications.
Does anyone have experience using a HID in this application? If so; what brand, any problems?
