This usually happens if the relay for the lights aren't working right anymore and your alternator is going weak. What you can do is install relay for your HID's.

Go with a Braille. Small, lightweight, dry cell, hard to kill, but expensive. My friend had one that would run her honda with her system going for around 24 hours without the alternator. So if uve got the cash go for it
