What I am seeing is not some gradual stabilzation over 20 seconds or two minutes. What I see is a VERY bright flash (easily twice as bright as normal - probably more like 4x as bright) that lasts for less than a second (about 1/4 - 1/2 second).
Is this normal? Does anyone else see this with their HIDextra kits? With other brands?

Every single HID kit or Oem HID does that. That is how the HID bulbs are ignited. Once ignited and makes that bright flash, is stabilizes to its actual temperature.

HI,
If you are buying a headlight with HID bulbs, the kit should already come with ballast, HID will not light without ballast, so please double check if your bulbs are in deed HID and not halogen. Thanks~

The hardest part is finding a good spot to mount the ballasts, they come with brackets instead of the adhesive backing, I mounted mine to an open hole.
