I want to install the 7” and 5” mopar off road lights. I don’t have the aux switches. My plan was to wire them to a wireless relay and control them with my remaining homelink buttons on my visor. I’m having trouble finding how much power the lights draw. Anyone know how many amps or watts these lights draw? Below are the two relays I’m deciding between. If you have a better option I’d be glad to hear it as well. I’m trying to avoid installing it through the firewall and into a switch in the cab.

If you go to the Mopar Store site and read the installation instructions for the lights, each set requires a 15 amp circuit. If you're willing to spend that much money for the Mopar lights, why not just have the dealer install an AUX switch set?

I don’t mind spending money on the parts but I have a hard time 1 overpaying for the pats and 2 overpaying for installs. Over 500 seems steep to add four switches. I’d rather do it my self and learn along the way. It says to use a 15 amp fuse but it doesn’t say how much power they actually draw.

I’ve decided to go with the trigger 4 plus for the install because I don’t feel over my head with it and it leaves room for more accessories

I don't know if i was cheap or lazy but on my JK I added a 300 w light bar on front bumper and used a led light bar harness with remote off Amazon for $15. That included lots of wire , fuse and the relay needed . Just connected to battery and had the hand held remote switch . Worked for years
