It's time for my winter project.  I thought I'd rig up a HID lamp inside my
Aquazepp LT-30.  Has anyone out there tried it?  I'm particularly interested
in:

1. Make and model of lamps to use.
2. How to rig safely, I'm not an electrical engineer but I know the
ballast's can hold quite a charge - how can they me made safe for an UW
environment.  30kv might not be that nice through my crotch - I'd rather not
try it on a dive anyway.
3. Whether to keep the existing reflector within the Zepp or if I need to
replace it.
4. Experience of HID lights in cold water (as low as 1C).
5. Any other advice on playing with HID lamps (do's and don'ts)

Cheers


Jim
