Wiring Lights using Aux Switch

[72FB]

If I have LED lights that produce more than the factory aux switch can handle, do I simple use the wired relay harness from the aftermarket lights and connect red to the positive aux lead so that I'd be utilizing another relay?

Yes, if necessary you can use the aux switches to trigger another relay - assuming the aftermarket relay kit uses a 12V + signal for activation.

I would recheck your amperage pull. I haven’t seen any LED lights on the market pulling anywhere close to 30 amps, just saying

LED's shouldn't pull that many amps. That's why they are popular. Less draw on the electrical system.

Here is what confuses me…. If I have LED lights that produce more than the factory aux switch can handle…. Are you looking at the output of the lights? Lights don’t produce, they consume amps.

My mistake. I just relooked at the product spec and 80W equates to 2.5A. Thanks for your responses.
