I just went on RockAuto Parts Catalog and it said the alternator was 130 amps, so if your off road lights are 35 watt hid they would draw around 3.4 amps each X 8 = 27.2 amps. Party on Rambo there is not a problema :teethmast :hi:

Yes IF they are HID's......If they are Halogens then no way for 6 lights...

Thanks a bunch guys. Im PLANNING (key word) on havin the fog lights(2) as just halogens and the longer range lights(4) and driving lights(2) as HIDs. So if i read correctly this will work fine???

That would be roughly 48.50 amp draw, you should be fine.

6-100 watt halogens should roughly pull around 50 amps, 8.33 amps ea.
Shouldn't that be O.K. How many amps does the VK56 pull to run it

Hey Lou, I'm gonna install a Phantom 18" led light bar that has a 8 amp draw.
Should I use a relay or run the 8 amps through a 20 amp switch
