i had the same problem. the chep ballasts will not work for our new tahoes. i spoke to a person from the company because i had to send a flickering ballast back. the ballast you are not using probably is a cheap one that needs a certain amount of watts to ignite. buy a pair from intense hid and you will be happy for a long time. HID's look cool. had them on all of my cars. but there always a bitch to have. not the most reliable lighting source.
hmmm, d u think, that i need to get just ballasts or i need bulb as well ?
i'm checked that site already and ballasts look exact same (harnesses and connectors).
R yours plug & play or did u hard wire them ? Did u use relay or capacitors ?

mine are plug and play. i had to splice for my reverse lights to pick up power for the ballast but there not really meant for that just thought i would be unique lol. ballast all look pretty much the same. if its a cheap one it will still look like a good one. but if your problem is flickering its not your bulb. its your ballast. each HID bulb has a life of about 1000 hours.

and i use a 5 farad audio capacitor in my car and have also done the BIG 3 upgrade with 0Guage wires to lessen resistance and also help out the charging system a bit. but thats because i have 3 12" subwoofers and a 2500w amp in my trunk. i had hids before all that tho and had no issues.

yab, i know that the balasts has to be replaced. I'm contacted seller and he replied abut 10 min ago (i scared him with negative feedback) and he told me that he is going to send me another balasts for exchange. So, will see. I made short video of flickering lights and ill put it on youtube soon.
I like that bright color
hehe They not that "sharp" as projectors but still make enough light to see "invisible"
