    Damnit you made me get out a calculator. NO it's a 100Watts! Still only 3 or 4 amps, that being the more important number for fuses and wiring.

    This is just not true. If it's 100W and you run it off a 12V system the amps are 100/12=8.3A. I'm not sure the estimate of 100W is correct either. Better have @Iggy. confirm

    I thought so but wasn't totally sure how many chips are in the bar. Thanks guys for your input I'll wait for @Iggy to chime in.

    That could be, hopefully iggy can confirm. I can't find the spec sheet but have a 20" 126w on my truck now, and as poor as my memory is serving me right now. I think it's only drawing 4Amps. But it's obviously past my bed time... :facepalm:

    You are either off on your recollection of your lights wattage or the amperage, the math just doesn't add up. Wattage equals voltage (usually ~12V in automotive applications) times the amperage. Or conversely, amperage equals wattage divided by voltage.

    @mountainmonkey has the right equation dividing wattage by voltage equals amperage so 4 amps at 12 volts would yield 48 watts max. If you've got your bar on a 4 amp fuse you might try a 10 amp fuse to get close to max wattage and brightness... at least that's how I think it works lol :cheers:

    I'm definitely going to have to check my fuse panel to see what I put in there. All I can say for certain is I haven't popped the fuse yet... :fingerscrossed:

    Just remember that too large a fuse is as bad as a fuse that's too small. For lighting applications a general rule of thumb is to have the fuse rated at ~125% of the total rated amperage of all the lights on the circuit.

    Sorry I missed all that about the watts.

    The 20 single row is 100w and needs 6.7A to achieve max lumens.

    Mounting hardware is around 8 mm if I remember right, they come with the 8 bolts you need, a rubber gasket to go between the light and bumper. As far as matching up to your existing cut outs, that I cannot answer.
