AMP: 35W XB35 2.0

The Morimoto XB35 2.0 HID Ballasts represent the next generation of premium aftermarket HID technology. Developed through a collaboration between Morimoto and Hylux, these ballasts combine OEM-inspired engineering, exceptional reliability, and advanced electronics into one of the most dependable 35-watt HID ballasts available.

Designed for retrofit enthusiasts and professional installers alike, the XB35 2.0 delivers fast startup, stable power output, reduced electrical interference, and outstanding long-term durability in a compact, weatherproof package.

Premium 35-Watt HID Performance

The XB35 2.0 provides a clean and consistent 35-watt output, allowing HID bulbs to reach full brightness quickly while maintaining stable light output throughout operation.

Benefits include:

• Fast warm-up time
• Stable light intensity
• Efficient power delivery
• Excellent compatibility with modern HID systems
• OEM-quality performance

Engineered for maximum reliability without sacrificing lighting performance.

Advanced Electronics for Superior Reliability

Built around an advanced AS15-G4 intelligent control chip, the XB35 2.0 continuously monitors system performance to help protect both the ballast and connected HID components.

The integrated electronics can detect issues such as:

• Loose high-voltage connections
• Ignition failures
• Electrical faults

If a fault is detected during startup, the ballast automatically interrupts power to help prevent internal damage and improve long-term reliability.

Designed for an estimated service life of approximately 2,500 operating hours, the XB35 2.0 is built for years of dependable performance.

Fully Sealed OEM+ Construction

Every XB35 2.0 ballast is built using premium automotive-grade materials to withstand demanding driving conditions.

Construction features include:

• Heavy-duty die-cast aluminum housing
• Fully potted internal electronics
• Moisture-resistant sealed construction
• Stainless steel hardware
• Compact 18 mm housing
• Four integrated mounting points

The fully potted circuit board protects sensitive electronics from moisture, vibration, dust, and harsh weather.

Modular Igniter Design

Unlike many conventional HID ballasts, the XB35 2.0 features a removable igniter system, providing greater flexibility for retrofit projects.

Benefits include:

• Easily switch between AMP and D2S igniters
• No unreliable adapter cables required
• Quick igniter replacement if needed
• Simplified future upgrades

The igniter connects securely using a premium AMP SuperSeal™ 3-pin connector from TE Connectivity, ensuring a weather-resistant and reliable electrical connection.

Improved CanBus Compatibility

One of the major improvements of the XB35 2.0 is its significantly reduced startup current.

Compared to previous generations, the ballast requires less than half the startup current, making it far more compatible with modern vehicle electrical systems.

Advantages include:

• Improved CanBus compatibility
• Reduced electrical load during startup
• Faster ballast ignition
• More efficient operation
• Fewer vehicle compatibility issues

Reduced EMI & RFI Interference

Like modern OEM HID systems, the XB35 2.0 places the igniter closer to the HID bulb, reducing the length of high-voltage wiring.

This design helps:

• Minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI)
• Reduce radio frequency interference (RFI)
• Protect internal ballast electronics
• Improve overall system reliability

The result is cleaner electrical performance and greater long-term durability.

Premium OEM-Inspired Design

Designed in California, the XB35 2.0 showcases Morimoto's commitment to both performance and craftsmanship.

Premium design details include:

• Precision die-cast housing
• Laser-engraved graphics
• Embossed housing details
• Stainless steel fasteners
• Premium TechFlex® braided wiring
