Default HID question

hey whats up everyone...i just wanted to know if someone can fill me in how exactly high intensity discharge lights work....how does it have a higher wattage than stock, and the wires don't burn is it kind of like an amplifier? in the sense that it takes the stock current from the battery and amplifies it to be super bright? i am really curious...any feedback would be greatly appreciated.thanks

and fyi, hid actually runs cooler at 35W, rather than most halogen ~50W.
