Someone can find information to prove me wrong, but I did a bit of research on what a HID actually is and went to school for Electrical Engineering...so I have an idea...
Anyway...to answer, NO. You can't.
The Kit is a Ballast and a Bulb. The Ballast is a special piece of electronics that puts out a great deal of power (high voltage, high current) that makes the electricity ARC from one point in the bulb to another. The arc is what gives the light. It is basically lightning in a bottle.
Anyway...the ballast is designed to put out a BUNCH of power to start the arc, because it needs to push the electricity until it "breaks" and starts the arc, once started though it takes less power and can ease off to a sustaining level, the current drops down to a sustainable level. If you tried to hook two bulbs up into one...the system wouldn't be able to power on two of them because it wouldn't know to build up that initial charge TWICE...and you can't trick it in anyway...just doesn't work.
Anyone an IEEE member? I am not anymore but I would like to read this...hahaDocument
