Guys, this may be a stupid question, but I'll ask it anyway.
What is the amperage of the rear window demister on late model GU's? I have never had the need to use the rear demisters on any vehicles I've owned, as I find that the AC does it better. That said, I have also never turned off my AC in any vehicle I've owned. Never had a bearing failure or gas leak as I'm sure it's the constant use that keeps everything lubricated.
Anyway ......... I'm considering using the demister circuit to power a flashing LED warning light bar, a requirement on vehicles on construction or work sites. The light bar is about 12" long with 16 3w LEDS. There is no rating label on the light bar.
I'm considering locating the light internally high on the glass on one of the rear doors.
Can anyone see a problem with this assuming the circuit amperage is sufficient?
