23.5amps for lights!!! holy cow man thats alot
ever though of using LEDs? i have a 1watt (single large globe) LED torch that will blind ya its that bright and thats 1 watt
watts= Volts X Amps
1 watt / 11.1 volts = 0.09 Amps... (i hope i got my math right lol)... mind you, how often will ya have ya lights on...
ps love the allu welding!! thats spot on perfect
Thanks, I enjoy welding aluminum. not a lot of people do it, so it adds something special to a project.
I did quite a bit of testing with the LED lights, krypton bulbs, flashlight stuff, mountain bike headlights in the 16 - 25 watt range, etc. Nothing gave me the real shock and awe I was looking for. I want it to look like a UFO landed when I'm driving this. I did a lot of searching and ended up with PIAA 004XT's. and not one light, but 4 of them.

Hey Bob if you find that it moves a bit slower than you expected, maybe [link=http://www.unbelievablerc.com/detail.php?pid=11]THIS[/link] will do the trick?
Wonder if they have a bigger can?
