Does PIAA actually manufacture their own bulbs? They do make good stuff.
Except....light isn't measured in watts, it's measured in candlepower or
lumens.  Be cautious of advertising, the ad people are masters of
spin......if PIAA's lights can put out 100 watts of electrical energy (not
light energy) with an input of only 55 watts, why, that would constitute a
perpetual motion machine!!! I want one!  :)

you forgot to mention PIAA, they don't do "blue" HID lights... and
their lights produce more output than wattage required to do it
(i.e./: they have a 55w/60w H4 that produces 100/110w of light
(3800K).
