    Question about using the piggy back add a circuit. I added mine to the ignition fuse which has a 7.5amp fuse. I added a 5amp fuse for my LED switch. First, any reason that'll cause problems? Second, can I add more piggy backs for other accessories without any issue?

    As long as you're just using it to light up the Switch. Then you'll be fine. The draw on those switches are very minimal. As far as other piggy backs, as long as you're aware and keep tally on amps, you'll be fine.

    Thanks! So, I understand you need to be mindful of total amps on a specific circuit, but is there a limit on amps for a fuse box or any rule of thumb not to go above? Or should I only
    Be concerned with how many amps are running through a single fuse or set of fuses in the case of piggy backs? (Sorry for the questions, I'm a newb with electrical)

    As long as you're running relays and powering them off the battery and only using the fuse panel to light up your switch,you'll be fine. But if you want, you can add this if you're worried or just want the extra space:

    Dang, I need to educate myself on those things. Electrical just makes me all kinds of nervous!

    Same wire on the other switch (ditch light switch). I used the same tap on both switches. the wires that come on the switchs
    are short so I used the green as an extension.

    Just received my light bar for my friend this morning and opened the box and the cover on the relay was busted cause it was just laying on top of the light bar with no protection, @MojaveMadman @CaliRaisedLed

    Your welcome! Just sent all the info to Cali. I know they will make it right and they will let me know when your relay goes out so I can get closure with you. Thanks for understanding and letting us get you dialed in!!!
