Hey Henry-

I PM'd Steve Ganz about the flickering of the McCulloch HIDs and he said his lights do that too. On his suggestion, I've e-mailed McCulloch and they've responded that this was normal for their ballast to flicker during ignition. I don't think Phillips ballast would do that since yours don't. However, I've never heard anything bad about McCulloch- it was recommended to get either Phillips or McCulloch HIDs.

I guess I feel a little more at ease with their response, although I wish the HIDs wouldn't flicker - similar to how old florescent lights do when you turn them on. Anyway thanks for your help.

that's interesting information, thanks for sharing. it's great that mcculloch stood up and explain that it's normal for their system. i am sure as long as they say it's normal it's all good. that means they have taken the flickering into account of the design.

i have two sets of philips ballasts + bulbs and they both don't flicker from what i can see, i guess it's just different design
