automotive HID lamps are typically 35W. They are special type of MH, and the light output is similar to a 35W MH. And most DIYers use 250W MHs.

as for color, 5100K retrofit automotive HIDs are available, so it is not a porblem. the problem is that they are not bright enough for LCD projection.

Oh, by the way, the idea was around the forum about 2.5 yr ago and got shot down.

when i think about it, it might be OK for 5" or so LCD (PSone) with large projection lens (CRT) and relatively small projection size ( < 50"? )

PS - Watch this video...they say that Xenon lamps reproduce almost exactly the color of daylight.

Whether that is good, or bad I'm not sure...I would imagine good.
