What xenon bulbs are legal?

Are xenon lights hot?
Xenon light bulbs don’t produce as much heat, and emit minimal UV rays. A standard halogen headlight bulb can reach several hundred degrees during operation, and the headlight lens itself might be over 100 degrees. HID lights can reach very, very high temperatures (far in excess of what a halogen can achieve).
