Gday, just joined the forum after reading this post and many other helpfull ones! Im just about to run the wire for two 7 inch cibie oscars with 100w globes as rear work lights and also flip up when out bush and would firstly like to say this post has helped me out heaps. Just want to know if my thinking is correct, i have a 5 pin relay and will be running positive off each light to each 87 pin on the relay, does this mean each wire will draw aprrox 8-9 amps per light instead of 16-18amps on one 87 pin (4 pin relay)? Then run one wire fused from battery to relay, one wire from relay to negative on battery, one wire from switch to reverse circuit, the other switch pin to the same pin on relay as reverse curcuit, then the relay will take all the power right? Then i will have the middle position of the switch as off, one way on for light only when in reverse and the other to have on whenever nessicary and dont need the ignition on? ill just put what im running and please feel free to correct me if i went wrong, narva 6mm(30amp) wire inline fuse holder with 20amp fuse, 6mm wire, 40amp 5 pin relay with resistor, 20 amp 3 way switch.
