HID (High Intensity Discharge) Basics: 

The operational concept of HID lamps are very similar to fluorescent lamps.  HID lamps include Mercury Vapor, Metal Halide, High Pressure Sodium/Low Pressure Sodium (SOX). 

• In an HID lamp, the electrical arc, gasses and metals are contained in the arc tube.
• Like fluorescents, HID lamps require a ballast to control the electrical current in the arc tube.
• HID lamps need a start-up time to reach their full brightness. This usually takes 5 to 10 minutes.

High Pressure Sodium/Low Pressure Sodium (SOX):

• Incorporates solid sodium, mercury and xenon or a neon/argon gas mixture
• Boasts a luminous efficiency that is much greater than its mercury vapor or metal halide counterparts
• Used in street lighting, industrial hi-bay, parking lots, building flood lighting and general area lighting
