REFLECTOR: Need help selecting HID light

[Jeff Howell]

It is a good idea to have ignition and any other high voltage wires separated from other aircraft wires. This helps reduce EMI and RFI. Jeff

Thanks, Jeff.  My high voltage wire is tied in a coil.  Is that ok?

Any of the high voltage wires to or from the ballast should be separated from all aircraft wiring.sorry for the confusion. Jeff

The big thing is that you have to watch out for is that the ballast does not cause EMI (electromagnetic interference) or RFI (radio frequency interference) interference with the aircrafts electronics. It can cause anything from static to blockage of antenna's at certain frequencies. Try to keep ballast away from antenna's and if you have to run wires do not run in a bundle of other wires and if you have to cross over them, cross over them perpendicular to all other wires. Try to keep ballast as far away from electronics as possible and try to  use igniter bulbs if possible. example D1R bulb...Jeff
Are you referring to the wires connecting the ballast to the bulb, or other wires?

Thanks,
John

Can anyone tell me if I need these features? Also what about bulb temperature? The higher temperatures look whiter, but the lower temperatures give off more light.
