do hids have to warm up

[SilverBullet67]

hey guys just got some hids for the whip from stealth they look sick but is it normal for them to have to warm up....like after 5 min they seem to be getting brighter is that normal thanks guys

I never thought about any 5 minute warm up. I have OEM HIDs and they fire right up and are already extremely bright. If they do get brighter after time, I am certainly not aware of it.

My HID's usually take about 30 seconds to fully heat up.
