55W are reliable.
70W - not sure yet, but we're testing them.
Digital kits tend to be more reliable than analog kits over time.
they don't strike the bulb as hard at startup.
anyone can offer cheap, but reliable (as with this forums very very many happy customers with our products) is hard to do

I got 6000k 35w Digital Kit from Umnitza and I Love it.
I was going to get Mobile HID's, but Clif was pretty Unreasonable, and isn't going to Sell the Digital Kits any longer, and wouldn't Lower the Price on them from $225, so I Ordered these. Customer Service is Excellent, e-Mailed me throughout the Night when I needed help.

What makes your ballasts digital?
There are no Microprocessors in HID ballasts. Just because it has a digital control circuit does not mean it has a processor of any kind or size inside. You still need the big inductors and capacitors to for it to be a ballast, which in my mind still makes it a magnetic ballast.
Does that mean I can put anything digital into the ballast that really doesn't do anything to it and call it a digital ballast?
Please explain. I'll be glad to hear a well-explained answer.
