This is absolutely wrong and untrue!!! There are plenty of non-projector HID lamps. What makes it true HID is the high intensity discharge arc in the filament free bulb.

This is misleading! DOT is about to approve them. Admittedly, their cut-off is not as hard edged as the projectors, but it is very visible, especially when compared to halogen lamps.
