Ok, I don't want to beat a dead horse. I have read all the threads on lights. Some really great ideas. I just want to get this right the first time. I bought (5) 55 watt lights from Harbor Freight. Since my JD 1070 has the stock 20 amp alternator I may only be able to use them separately (275 watts / 12 volts = 22.92 amps). Heres my thought (2) mounted forward on the ROPS, (2) mounted rear on the ROPS, (1) on the backhoe itself. Not to sure about the last one yet. My ROPS has 2 holes which are threaded on each side of it, looks to be factory. Thats where I will mount them. As far as the wiring, I will go from battery to in-line fuse, from in line fuse to relay, wire realy to switch and to lights. OK here come the questions:
What size wire from battery to fuse?
What size fuse?
What size relay?
What size wire off of relay?
So, have three setups, each one needs all the above? Gotta be something better? Power block of something.
What do you guys recommend?
Thank you
