Default HID Question

So my driver side headlight is flickering when I turn on the headlights and continues to flicker while its on then decides to turn off(go out) would that more likely be the bulb or the ballast?

well I left the lights on(on accident) and it drained the battery almost completely so the lights were flickering but when I popped the clutch I noticed the damage done, its a 9004 8000K for my NX2000.

Could also be the fuse. Happened to a friends DC2 and it would flicker for a sec or 2 when you turned it on. We checked the fuse and it was bad. 1 minute fix.
