DIY Modifying low Beam Bulb

Hi all

i'm just wondering if anyone can help me.
well my question is,

is it possible to change the stock light bulb ( not Xenon) to the PIAA H7 55W bulb with no problems?

i've heard it would be better if the white headlight run from another cell rather the car battery due to the fact that the White light drains too much power letting the car with electrical problems

What are your views?

regards,
Eric

Had this bulb in for a year now with no problems what so ever.The light is a lot whiter than OEM.They are quite exspensive though
