Question..How much power do these HIDs draw compared to stock. I want to eventually add light bars, winch, stereo, etc. I think I'm probably already overwhelming the electrical system. Will these help or hurt?
What is says if I remember correctly it draws 30% less power then regular bulbs. I did not notice any problem with lights on, no gear shifting issues, I've used winch with them also. I highly doubt you would.
I hardly image you using all gizmos at the same time, unless you gonna plow snow at night with all your lights on and having stereo bashing
)) so your neighbors know that a nice guy helping them out in the snow storm .
My voltmeter reads above 14 V when all works together (HID lights, winch) when p500 is running. Only thing that gave me a trouble was cheap portable electric defroster vent, that was a amperage sucker
. Only works with higher engine rpms.
