Osram describes its Powertronic (PTi) 35 S Mini as the lightest and most compact 35 W electronic control gear to date. It has a very long lifetime of up to 40 000 h and an identical housing footprint to the PTi 20 S. It is suitable for all standard 35 W ceramic metal-halide lamps and designed to be installed within the luminaire, coming with a lightweight plastic housing and fixing cable that is 0.5 m long.

Benefits of this control gear include improved colour stability, safer and more reliable lamp operation and up to 30% longer lamp life.
