is there really that much load to add a relay?

[motorztv]

@01jordanfirst Oh yes. If you don't add a relay you'll melt your wires.

If you guys have that nice big ol' chevy, what're you doing working on that F-150?

[motorztv]

@CuminStrokeMyDuramax The black Chevy? It was here just for that episode with the BedTred.

[CuminStrokeMyDuramax]

@CuminStrokeMyDuramax No, the white one at the end of the video. Or was that someone else's ride?

[motorztv]

@CuminStrokeMyDuramax That belongs to a friend of the show, but we haven't worked on that vehicle yet. It's so sweet!

nice truck chris

[odisbrawnerjr]

Hi, I have 900 watts of Halogen and Rigid LED's equal 20 amps of draw on my truck. Right now I have 200 watts per 30 amp/fuse relay running on 14 guage wire for power and ground. Would increasing that to 40 amp relays and say 6 gauge wire make my lights burn any brighter? I do not have a heat issue, I seem to be getting enough power but was hearing from someone that if I made the wire larger (or just cut the watts on the 14 gauge down to 100 watts each I suppose) that I would get more light.
