Hi Guys
Is the wiring loom (recently replaced) capable of handling; short term use of all spotlights (2 at 35w), headlight (35w), tail light (5w), brake light (15w) etc etc, with a 6 volt battery (22ah)? This would be drawing 125w with 6 volts and so 20+ amps? Should I be using LED bulbs?
I have installed an 8-0-8 amp ammeter (which is obviously too small). I can increase the range by using a shunt resistor but can't remember how to calculate the correct shunt resistance - any electrical engineers around? Would it be 0.05 ohm and 150watt??
Thanks
Greg
