Message	55W is not greater than a 35W system. It's all about light intensity (lumens), colour (Kelvin) and bulb age. You are comparing two different systems here, and I'm sure entirely different ages of bulbs. 55W - 35W ~ 20W of wasted heat output in the ballasts or ignitors rather than light dissipation. 1990 Nissan 300ZX 1982 Datsun 200SX Cardomain website
