Colour temperature of HID lamps are mostly determinate by Xe gas composition inside HID meniscus .
Second point is type of electric supply it have DC power supply (from balast on HID ) or have AC .
Energy needed to fire lamp is determinated by gas pressure and distance between both electrodes.
The difference is spotted on both electrodes inside meniscus and on beam on start DC on start looks so and then
equalize colours , AC have same colour on both electrodes
It is well known that WA bulbs was more blue and older go to white and Brightstar more green-yellow .
Same function as combination of gas inside bulb have at led phosphorus mixture which is hidden in chromatic and illumination code inside ''BIN''
Brightnes at that point have no role. If you want a tem of your light should be measured in colorimeter.
