Any reason you couldn’t run both on the same switch? Can one switch handle the load?

I have both of mine on switch 1 via a relay.

I have all 6 of my cubes on switch 2 via a relay.

I’m trying to figure out how to wire my girl when she is in the truck to switch 3, closing her mouth. When I have that figured out I will report back.

I’m a relay newbie, so this is probably a dumb question and I’m using poor terminology, but is the purpose of the relay so you can run power directly to the battery and then use the AUX switch to trigger the relay?

If so, did you put a fuse in-line with the battery power at all?

If you figure out the girl definitely report back!:biggrin:

Yup, you are correct. I used some old wiring harnesses from past lights, so the fuse was already built in. You can wire one up just as easily, without the harness, but I would definitely go ahead and use an inline fuse just as a CYA.

Do you have to take the grill off to install, or can you do it without removing it? Are there install instructions or a video somewhere on the install?
