LED lights
Oddjob:
Fair play, although TBH I've not seen a switchgear burn out due to power demands, shorts yes. Doesn't hurt to play safe though. IIRC the draw for an LED headlight is about 10-15w only.
Pauarc:
Spec of L E D are
Oddjob:
Well I've fitted thousands of LEDs and those are explained wrong. What they are saying is that they are equivalent to those wattages, not that they'll draw that much power. 45w for a sidelight??? add running one of the beams as well and you're likely the flatten the battery very quickly.
Pauarc:
Yes I can see what you mean about it is the equivalent to the wattage it says
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
Ken is right I think in that the watts shown are defintely not a true reflection of the current used by LED's.
The important part I think is to look at the light output in a typical quarts Iodene H4 bulb will have an output of around 1350 Lumens for main beam the LED unit is around 3600 Lumens that more than double the light output even more if dip & main are on together as with these lamps thats 6,000 Lumens.
