lite cannon uses the same bulb and ballast as halcyon and the rests 10w hids so you would be just gutting the ligth cannon for them nothing else on the lc worth keeping

nothing wrong with that i have several buddys who have done just that since buying a cheap lite cannon on ebay is often the easiest cheapest way to get an hid b&b

btw the ballast will fit in the handle of a maglite d cell lite. lot of people have made q&d halogen lites from maglites like padipro's but i've never seen an hid yet but no reason why not

So now the question, has anyone thought about or tried to see if it is possible to convert a light cannon HID into a canister HID ??

[I'm in the DIR/F class at the end of the month, my turtles will be in Tuesday, my SPG came in Thursday, my wetnotes and spool came in Friday, I just eBayed my brass snaps and upgraded to SS this weekend...yeah. I'm pretty much on the dark side these days.[/B]

And just what DIR/F class would that be?
