Edit - This circuit seems good - 12 Volt Battery Low Indicator LM741 - Electronics
Yes, I had spent 6K on it. But fortunately I had got it thorough one my cousin, from China.
I tried using it, although the experience didn't yield any practical usage. But I do remember that time i was in Gandhinagar, Gujarat. And while riding with a 5W bulb was enough to illuminate the road clearly. There were no HID's that time, so had to think about something to increase light spread.
The world looks green, but practically if can make use of such a device, our 35W bulbs would be enough for riding at 100Kmph!

And yeah the circuit seems good enough, and I think that's exactly you are looking at? Or you have have digital input system in mind??. Though I don't have the circuit which i had built.
