Oregon and Washington BS thread

Good running into you too! Wasn't expecting that at all.

On the topic, I don't have anything that runs over 30a for accessories. I need a winch, but I need the front bumper first. Or at least the undercover one that I'm waiting for. I'll have relays for that and relays for a light bar if I go that route.

 

Link to the LEDS you are using?

I find it hard to believe they are gonna pull 30amps. I just installed Rigid SRQ2 (part #93531) using the factory fog harness and switch with no problems. The Rigid put out over 3000 lumens, 34 watts and pull 2.5 amps.

Specifications:
Watts: 34.5
Amp Draw: 2.50
LED's: 6
Raw Lumens: 3030
Lux @ 10m: 206.1
Beam Distance: 287.1 m
Peak Beam Intensity: 20,612 cd

You sure you aren't mixing up wattage with amperage?

 

Also, keep in mind that if you plan on using the factory fog light harness/wiring, it is already protected by a 30A relay in you main junction block

 

i agree with you ben, maybe his numbers are incorrect.

Im running knock of duallys in my fogs, and there wired straight to the factory fog light wires.

 

Hmm you guys make total sense. Here's the specs on their website:
3" Pods

•Lumen Rating: 1,350 (each)
•Beam: 30° Spot
•Watts: 18
•Amp Draw: 1.5
•Operating Voltage: 12V DC
•Color Temperature: 6000K
•Material: Diecast aluminum housing
•Lens Material: Polycarbonate
•Mounting Bracket: Stainless steel
•IP67 rating for dust and water resistance
•Operating Environment: -40~+122°Fahrenheit
•Plug & Play with our Wiring Harness (sold separately)
•Dimensions: 3" Wide, 3" Tall, 3" Deep
•LED chip: CREE XB-D 3W [more info]


Now here's the specs on the wiring harness they sell:
16 Gauge Wire
Length from battery to light: 10ft
Relay: 40 amp
Fuse: 30 amp
2 Light Connections

Dakota confused

 

The reason got the high amp relays and stuff is because of the initial power surge you get. Typically think 10-15amps depending on your setup. Everything has an initial surge.

 

Soooooo yall think I'm fine?

 

Yes. The stock wiring will easily handle an amp draw of 1.5 amps.

 

x2
you'll be fine

 

Alright guys well I'm off to wire so lights! Thanks

 

@Oregon TRD

this is that truck i seen last week. Any ideas who it is?

 

Whoa TW is completely different.

I am just dropping in to say hello. I've been busy with school and training for a century ride. I bought a road bike last week! I am super stoked for this event on may 16th!

 

Hey it's the OP! You should add me to the first page that's super exciting I really want a street bike but I'm sure id kill myself quite fast.

On a side note those LEDs do work fine with the factory wiring! Don't know why I overthought that. Thanks guys!

 

FYI, he bought the pedal kind

I just got done with putting the winch and skids back in. Crawling around like that will make you feel old fast.

 

Tires got pushed to Tuesday

 

Doh! Haha yeah car lifts are nice

 

Used to have a road bike! Loved it, and seeing how fast you could go down hill was a plus too haha! Only had a couple close calls with cars..but that was back in CA. What kind of bike did you get?

 

Did anyone else get the frame recall inspection notice? I'm not anticipating any problems with my frame, but I really don't like the idea of Olympia Toyota touching anything, so I'm going to have to figure out a time and place to have some other dealer inspect.

 

Yeah, got my letter. Going to schedule a time to take it in, after I take my bags off.

 

im really debating about shelling out the cash for a bestop... I havent fully decided since there a bit $$$, but kinda would like to have one. What should i do fellas?
