Is there a limit to how many strips of LEDs you can run off one switch? Thanks

@ChappersSP
There is a limit of 10 Amps, however I don't think you could put 10 amps worth of strips on a plane if you tried. I ran 7 strips on my Super Cub with no problems at all on the same battery I was using to power the plane.

3 cell lipo is what I run the truck on so it worked out

I figured it out. The LEDs need to be powered by the car battery
@hondasarecool1
Have you considered getting a small 3 cell lipo battery? 11.7V is close enough to a 12v car battery.

I am trying to use mine with an external nine volt and just can't get it to light up the LEDs
LED are very voltage specific unlike an incandescent bulb. Are you sure your LED's will work with nine volts?
