H9 globes have a round base with a rubber seal around the top of the plastic. Like all HID Xenon globes, the glass chamber section is identical, only the base differes between socket types. H9 HID bulbs come in all colour temperatures (Kelvin rating) in our Supervision kits.. The H9 bulbs will last around 3000 hours if driven by a 35 watt ballast, or around 2000 hours with a 55 watt ballast. H9 bulbs can be used on both CANBUS and NON-CANBUS bikes.
