4 x 100 watt spotlights

[Patrol 1993]

Could someone please let me know if I can put 4 x 100 watt spotlights on my 1993 Patrol.
It has a 4.2 Litre petrol engine.
I will be using relays.
Will the current drawn from the standard battery be too much for the battery to handle?
Will the alternator be able to handle the load?
Or should I stick to only 2 spot lights.

Thanks, Neil.

The electrical system will handle the load quite adequately but in this day and age there are better solutions that will give a higher light output at lower current draw.

A Patrol I bought recently had 4 x 100 watt and 2 x 55 watt incandescent spotlights.
It now has a a 240 watt light bar and 2 x 55 Watt HID which gives much more useable lighting on and off road at a little over 1/2 the same current draw

Yeah a Light Bar in a heart beat mate.

You might have a problem when Idleing - ie off road and the revs a low - on road doing 100kmh should be fine

Hi The Evil Twin.
What would a set up like that cost?
Where would be the best place to get it?
I live in Brisvagas.
