Amperage on Aux Switches

[sixshooter_45]

We list the following guidelines in our Triple Fog Light Kit Manual. It's a good guideline to use:

Baja Designs S1 (Pair): 2.9 Amps Max
Baja Designs S2 Sport (Pair): 1.8 Amps Max
Baja Designs S2 Pro (Pair): 3.32 Amps Max
Baja Designs Squadron Sport (Pair): 4.0 Amps Max
Baja Designs Squadron Pro (Pair): 6.66 Amps Max
Rigid Industries D‐Series Driving (Pair): 6.28 Amps Max
Rigid Industries D‐Series SAE (Pair): 3.0 Amps Max
Rigid Industries D‐Series (All Others, Pair): 4.28 Amps Max
Rigid Industries Radiance Pod (Pairs): 2.0 Amps Max
Rigid Industries Radiance Scene (Pairs): 4.0 Amps Max


As others have said. 4.28 IS below the 5 amp threshold BUT it's really close. SO you might blow the fuse from time to time as it heats up or you get any surges. For a 4.28 amp circuit I like to use a 7.5amp fuse (or in the Raptor case, the 10amp circuit).

You're NOT supposed to switch the fuses to anything higher, for good reason. BUT if you went from a 5 amp to a 7.5amp fuse. I'd say you should be OKAY. Don't go above that though but MAYBE throwing a 7.5 in there will help solve your issue. It should still pop with any issues since the amperage is so low. If you did a 20 amp fuse, that'd be a BIG no no. But going to a 7.5 should solve your problem without causing issues. You already know your lights are not pulling higher then 4.28 amps but you just need a little extra room to get you through a little surge or extra heat.

What about Baja Designs Squadron SAE amperage per pair?

I was mistaken, no relay in the kit, just a switch and an inline fuse.

What about Baja Designs Squadron SAE amperage per pair?

Squadron SAE are about the same as sports, 1.6 each, 3.2 Amps total

I was mistaken, no relay in the kit, just a switch and an inline fuse.

You should try our wiring harnesses out. They make it easy to install
