Yay or nay?

This looks good. I’ve got 2 Onyx6 hybrid lights behind the grill. I might have to see about adding this as well

Do you turn yours on via aux switch?

I use a relay and run them through an upfitter switch. Got the entire setup from SPV.

Thanks. I meant AUX switch. My spell check got me. I cant believe the little brown/green wire for aux 2 can flow enough juice to run this onx6!

I don't think the Aux switch can run the Onyx6 as a stand alone. That's the reason for the relay. You may be right at the thresehold of the Aux switch but I wouldn't recommend it. Safer to run a relay

It says AUX 2 is 15amps. The 10" ONX6 is 108w/8.4a.....so i should be more than GTG for that one correct? It seems to work fine. Does the relay that you have connect to the ford AUX switch? I guess it would since your two lights would exceed the output of even the 15 AUX 2 or AUX 3.

One 10" bar is fine for Aux 2. Two of them will blow the circuit. if you want to wire both lights to one switch you need to use a relay. A 30a relay will cover the output needed as it is wired to the battery and the circuit that connects from the relay to the Aux switch draws minimal power.

This video does an ok job of explaining it. I am by no means an expert. I seem to know just enough to get me in trouble...haha
