Hi
This might sound a bit simplistic. I'm going wire up my headlights and new (! Christmas present) driving lights, 55W each, through relays. I was wondering whether the relays can be wired directly to the spare terminal on the alternator, 45 amp. Would the current not be stable or is it OK to do this to save long lengths of wire running to the solenoid junction? How many amps should the relays be rated for?
I've been through the recent thread
