A HID ballast can be purchased from Amazon or eBay. The term 'ballast' is used to describe large inductors used to limit AC current for fluorescent lighting.
For your question, i see the ignitor means the Electronic Ballast. If you want test HID lamp electronic ballast, you can reference Lisun WT2000-HID HID Ballast Tester, this instrument is main for test HID lamp electronic ballast,
Rewiring a 110 volt HID magnetic coil ballast to operate on 220 volts would require replacing the existing ballast with one designed for 220 volts. Attempting to rewire the ballast could lead to overheating, electrical failures, or even safety hazards. It is recommended to consult a professional electrician or purchase a new ballast suitable for 220 volts.
To connect a ballast, first, ensure the power is turned off. Then, match the wiring from the ballast to the wiring in the fixture according to the wiring diagram provided with the ballast. Make sure all connections are secure and insulated properly before restoring power.
A T8 LED tube has to be used with a ballast to bring the correct voltage to the tube for it to operate correctly. Removing the ballast from the circuit will prevent the tube from operating.
If a 227V power source is connected to a 120V ballast, the ballast may get damaged due to the excessive voltage. It is important to always ensure that the voltage input matches the rated voltage of the ballast to prevent such issues.

Yes, HID lights need a ballast.
A ballast is a ballast in most cases. So yes you should be fine.
Generally:Disconnect power supply to bulbPlug in HID Kit ballast unit to power supply to bulb. This may require drilling a hole in the rubber or plastic rear coverSecure Ballast unit to the vehicleRemove old bulbPlace HID bulb in holderConnecting output of ballast to HID bulbThis will vary from manufacturer to manufacturer, and your HID kit should come with instructions.
All high-intensity discharge (HID) bulbs, and all fluorescent bulbs, require a ballast, which is a device that limits current. It can raise the voltage and/or heat the bulb cathodes.
No. An hid bulb has a transformer (ballast) that produces a certain voltage needed to fire the gas in that lamp.

To replace the HID bulb and ballast on a 2001 Lexus ES300, first, disconnect the negative battery terminal to ensure safety. Remove the headlight assembly by unscrewing the bolts and gently pulling it out. Once the assembly is accessible, unplug the old ballast and bulb; then, install the new ballast and bulb, ensuring they are securely connected. Finally, reassemble the headlight assembly, reconnect the battery, and test the new components.
Yes, because the ballast is consuming energy even though the lamp is burned out.
There are two ways to do this:Replace the entire light unit with a HID light unit compatible with the car, if one is available.Use an aftermarket HID conversion that fits standard bulb sockets, and adds HID bulbs and a ballast unit.HID bulbs require a ballast unit to generate the high voltages required, so are not a direct replacement. In most HID kits, the power can be taken from the existing lighting power supply, so the lights operate as normal.HID conversion kits are not road legal in some countries.
You can buy high quality HID kits on eBay for about 100-150 bucks. You pretty much just unscrew the stock halogen bulb, and screw in the HID bulb, and attach the original wring to the ballast. Then find some room in the engine compartment which is cool and mount the ballast. I have had pretty good luck mounting the ballast with zip ties and double sided tape. Its a pretty easy install, and well worth it. If the beam of light is not where you want after you've completed the install, then Google "how to adjust 350z headlight". good luck.
The letter "E" on a ballast nameplate typically stands for "Electronic." It indicates that the ballast is an electronic type, which is designed to regulate the current to fluorescent or HID lamps efficiently, providing benefits such as energy savings and improved lighting quality compared to traditional magnetic ballasts.
