This video shows you what happens when you use difference ballasts. Most people don't understand why some HIDs show a different color with the same temp bulb. Usually when you use a high wattage ballast, the color washes off towards a lower temperature. The higher the wattage the lower the temperature color will show. Most people will say to just change the bulb temperature if you want a different color which IS true if you stay with the same ballast. Now if you change the ballast then that is where it will get complicated.
Video Description:
1st Demonstration - The 55w ballast with 6000k bulb will look like the 35w with a 5000k. Both are white.
2nd Demonstration- 55w with the 5000k will look more the the yellowish white color of a OEM HID system and/or of a OEM halogen bulb. And the 35w with the 6000k will have a white color with some tint of blue.

I've noticed none of the Annotations can't be seen on a mobile device. I guess the KZfaq app doesn't support it. It may not make a big difference but I just figured I'd let you know It can be a bit useful to see them especially at the end of the video and my spelling errors LOL ;)
Thanks for watching

I know this is an older video, but it is probably the most useful one I've ever seen about HIDs... I have spent a lot of money messing with headlights (HIDs, LEDs, of different makes and colors etc.) And from a performance aspect (pitch black rural / mountain driving), 5000K - 5500K @ 35W and 6000K - 6500K @ 55W is definitely the way to go in terms of color temp. I am currently trying a 6500K @ 35W for a high beam, and it is definitely too blue, the hotspot on the ground stands out vs. my 6500K @ 55W low beams, and doesn't do nearly as good of a job illuminating the road, trees, etc. as the old 5000K @ 35W. For city driving and cool styling, sure 6500K @ 35W is going to be okay, but if you drive for long periods in pitch black conditions, you might get some eye strain with that color temp / output.

I think he pretty much nailed it. 35W + 5000k is brighiter than 35W + 6000k but not as bright as any of the combinations using 55W. But that shld have been obvious. more power means more lumens. even with incandescent bulbs at home. just freeze the frames for the 2 demonstrations and compare them side by side. great job, Chris.

Good video I know it’s old, but I personally prefer 35w HIDs than a 55w as 55w just wash the colour out, for example if you use 8000k HID like I have in mine, the 55w HID will shift the colour down more like a 6000k. It also typically melts or burns the mirror reflector chrome out. Which is why 35w is way better less likely burning the reflector chrome out

I know this is an older video but never got a chance to thank you for the share. I have 35 watt ballast for my low beams and 35 watt for my driving/fog lights and 55 watt for my high beams. They're all in 5000k. I like the 6000k in the 55 watt. I did the 4 high mod in my Silverado and the high beam is close to the low beam but I think the 6000k would make it look better and serve the purpose of the high beam better.

didn't read many comments ,but most of the colors are rated for the 35 watt ballast , when you throw a 55w at it basically washes the color out and drops the kelvin , so 8k is more like a 5/6 or a 6k is more like a 5/4k , but all depends on the bulb, some manufactures rate a 8k when it's actually a 6 and so on

THE POINT IS: THE 55W BALLAST WILL PRODUCE LESS OF A BLUE-TINT ON THE KELVIN TYPE BULB (4300-1,000k). IT PUSHES THE LIGHT WAVES TO BE MORE TRUE. THE VIDEO DEMONSTRATES HOW A HIGHER PUSHING BALLAST WILL MAKE SLIGHLTY LESS TINT COME OUT. YOU CAN PLAY WITH THE WATTS ON THE BALLAST + THE KELVIN OF THE BULB.

hids are perfect in a projector type housing that has the appropriate shield in it so people don't get blinded. People who put hids in a reflector type housing thats meant for a halogen are the ones giving everyone else a bad name. Yellow or white are legal in Australia but any blue then you attract the wrong attention easy. Makes sense to aim aftermarket fog projectors lower too as not to blind oncoming traffic.

Guys can you help? I wanted to switch from 35W H.I.D to 55W but while I already got my 55W bulbs, I just learnt that 55W ballast should go to a well ventillated area cause they draw more power and thus more heat will be produced, also wires maybe not up to the task. So if I already had my bulbs anyway I gave it a try and 55W bulbs worked just fine with the 35W ballast, they gave me strong white color, they turned on fast and they worked so far, I've been using them for a full day. Should I continue using them this way? Or will I damage to ballast? I only care about the ballast, I already know the bulbs will last only about 1000 hours instead of the 2000-3500 but thats not such a problem for me. But I don't wanna lose the ballast. Can someone help me with that?

most hid bulb are for 35w ballast thats just standard like any oem hid, 55w ballast is just an overclock version, so if you buy a 6500k hid bulb thats for 35w ballast, once you put them with 55w ballast, it will be brighter for sure but the color temparature will be washed out by about 1000k lower, it will look like a 5500k hid bulb.

Helpful video, now I need to change out my ballast (35w) to get rid of the hint of blue on my 6K bulbs with a (55w) ballast. Do you have any info on AC vs. DC ballast. I heard AC was better. Let me know if you do. Thanks again
@lemer3
@lemer3 10 жыл бұрын
Hey Alex, AC refering to Alternative Current means it is the home electricity which shocks us when we touch a cable an ground. DC referes to Direct Current and this type of electricity is usual on batteries, and you can touch the positive and negative of the source and it doesn't shock. The purpose of a ballast is to transfor DC Into AC and amplify it. The purpose of an AC ballast (found in fluorescent fixtures at home) is to amplify the the voltage. AC and DC ballast will throw an ignigter reserve when first powered on, and then reduce current and voltage depending on the bulb. Hope this helps.

Does using 55w result to hotter bulb than using 35w? If yes, will it damage the headlight housing? thanks,

35W is bright enough for me. And 55W's over time will burn your housing.

Did you use same bulbs for your headlights? I just bought 35w 6000k HID, but I want to 55w ballasts on those bulbs. Do you think it will burn my bulbs or melt something?

No it wont melt anything but you will have following effects: 35w 6000k bulb when powered with 55w ballast will give colour output as 5000-5500k , your starting warmup time will be quick, More brighter than 35w. The only downside a slight less life of bulb but that again only few hours so that negative point is negeligible plus you will get color like cold white led like on the new merc similar color to that which is eye candy to me and is my current setup.

mombasasherman well it will not. All depends upon bulb and ballast quality. I have used 35w ballast like DLT and hylux who shifts color even in 35w. Also what you mean by 6000k 55w. Does it mean 35w 6000k bulb with 55w ballast. If so then it will give output as 5000k but will be brighter than 35w 4300k. Actually most of 55w bulb available in market are actually rebagged 35w bulb for example if a bulb says 6000k 55w it is actually 8000k 35w bulb rebagged and sold with 55w ballast. Remember one simple thing a 35w bulb at 55w will be loose ~700-1200k temperature but with increase in output

Yea(: ok so i basically want the color that 6000K 35W has. but i want it with 55W. So should i buy 8000K 55W? since it will lose color 8000K should be fine right??
