Current’s LED HID Replacement Lamps Offers a Simple, Cost-Effective & Sustainable Solution

Did you know that starting in 2029, installing HID lamps will no longer be allowed? This regulatory transition is fast approaching — yet many buildings still rely on these outdated, energy-hungry technologies.

Fortunately, Current is ahead of the curve. Its line of LED HID replacement lamps offers a simple, cost-effective, and sustainable solution to modernize lighting systems without having to replace existing fixtures.


Direct Compatibility with Existing Installations

Current’s LED HID replacement lamps are designed to directly replace traditional HID lamps in a wide range of outdoor applications, such as:

  • Sports fields
  • Municipal decorative lighting
  • Parking lots with “shoe box” fixtures
  • And much more

Thanks to ANSI code compliance and their ability to replicate the output of HID lamps, these LEDs install easily — no complex mechanical or electrical adjustments required. Just remove the ballast and screw them in.


Tangible Savings & Long-Lasting Performance

The benefits are clear:

  • Lifespan: 8 to 10 times longer than traditional HID systems
  • Energy savings: Up to 73% energy reduction
  • Cost: Comparable to a traditional HID lamp + ballast setup
  • No ballast required
  • Instant, quiet start-up

Versatile & Compliant

The product line includes several models with advanced features:

  • Adjustable wattage and color temperature (CCT), for a perfect fit in any environment
  • Dark sky-compliant models, ideal for municipal applications or areas near residential or natural spaces

A Smart, No-Compromise Transition

Versatile, reliable, and high-performing, Current’s LED HID replacement lamps are the best choice for your short- or medium-term retrofit projects. They offer an immediate response to the end of HID technology — and a proactive way to cut maintenance costs and energy use.
