On the contrary, HID lighting is extremely efficient electrically. The OEM low beam on the 675 is a standard 55 watt H7 bulb producing approximately 1250 - 1400 lumens. An HID setup of a H7 compatible 35 watt setup uses 20 watts
less and gives off 3000 - 3200 lumens, twice the output

Hi beam is rated as standard 55/60 watt H4 bulb at 1500 - 1650 lumens versus the HID 55 watt H4 putting out 4600 - 5300 lumens, blindingly bright to oncoming traffic.
