Well i bought a light bar. My plan is to mount the light bar and four (4) 130 watt lights on the bar.
Here are the lights:
Here is the diagram i am running with: (With some additions)
Instead of just one Relay (seeing as that relay is for one (1) set of 55 Watt lights, i am going to run one Relay for each light)
I am going to run 14 gauge wire for the switch (maybe 12 if the switch is lighted) with the positive piggybacking from one relay to the next. For the lights i am going to run 10 gauge wire.
Here is my diagram. Pink indicates the hot to the lights, red indicates the hot to the lights. If this is wrong feel free to correct me. Feel free to critique my child like drawing too.
So my simple question is. What size relays would i need, and would a 15 amp switch be enough to power the relays?
I also plan on drilling a hole just large enough for the wire to get through, just beneath the gutter on the passenger side. I'll put a grommet on it and seal it, run it down the B pillar and run the switch to my bezel on my dash.
So basically i am asking.
Is my wiring diagram right?
Where can i get and what size relays do i need? (Ryan (FireGuy) feel free to whore here, if i can i like to support FSB members, i found some of your links when searching, but they were dead links)
What size (15 amp enough?) and where can i get a blingy switch?
Thanks for your help!
