I've been craving those! But could not find any, let alone at a reasonable price.
Anyway, with my 35W HIDs I have the best of two worlds: more light (where that was needed) for less power.
I don't think it is just about ballasts either, you'd need the right lamp or the startup time in the cold would be really bad, to name one thing.
