I can't imagine ever going back to HID having used LED. HID was only a viable thing before LED got good enough. There's nothing HID does that LED can't do, except cost more, overheat, burn more power and start up slowly.
You and vampares are talking two different technologies. Sounds like he's talking about an MR-16 35 watt halogen. And his issue sounds like it's battery related. Lithium chemistries don't like fast deep current draws.
