Do you need an amp to run the extra lights or could they hook up striaght to the battery with extra wiring?

You can hook the speaker wires to the amp and the other wires strait to the battery no extra amp needed

You do not need an amp to run the speakers, but it it's highly recommended to get the most sound from these speakers. The blue LED lights will need a 12 volt power supply.

Lights just go straight to a battery but you will want to have them on a switch so you can turn them off

I ran my wires straight to the stereo power wire and they've worked great. I have a switch on my console that powers up the radio. When that switch is turned on, the speakers are lit up regardless of whether the radio is on or not. They look pretty cool at sunset and I'm sure they would look awesome at night. The speakers themselves sound great. Good luck.

Yea, just use a single throw 10 amp DC switch (there some that Amazon sells) which will allow you the ability to add more lights if needed.

You won't need a really, since it's an led they don't draw a lot of power but to answer your question I don't know sorry

I suppose yoou could use other lights - However, yo need to be real careful about the amps being pulled as this is not a commercial systme and you burn fuses up real quick.

Depends on if you want to run in series or parallel. I would recommend grounding them independent and using your current 12v "positive" wire to power them. Take the "hot" wire from your current light bar and splice the positive wire from these into it. If you're unsure which one is positive touch both leads to your battery they only work one way.

Just the strip of lighting I use them with 12v batteries and any 12v power suppy will work. Standard 12v female adapter on the end of led....and an assortment of dimmers and switching are available...power supply extra.

you will need a positive wire from the battery. You can also make this work on your head lights with a TPST switch and a SPST switch.

Yes, but you will need to incorporate an LED amplifier and power adapter for additional strands. You will need to reference the amps provided by the existing power suppy and the amps used by the LED lights, but you will normally require this type of setup for anything greater than 4 or 5 meters.

Make shure their is no a/c bleed over,and that it is d/c12v. Not 12 v a/c. Then you should be ok. Also double check the amps you only need one or two amps to run the lights. Use a fuse!

Yeah actually I didn't have an amp at the time just keep them from distorting you know turning up load I have an who's system now with four of them two in the stock 6:9 hole I'm my back window and two in separate individual boxes and they light up the backseats .

The circuit wiring is too thin. Not enough power. You could set up a wiring system as if you were going to put in an amp. Just need thicker cables to power it. Just an idea. It would be best to usea deep cycle battery though

I bought some extra wire but didn't need it. Just spliced in to the existing wire. I already had a 5 amp panel. It wasn't enough to keep the battery charged. So the short answer other than wire you shouldn't need anything

Not if they draw more then 24 watts. To find out put an amp prob around one of the wires to the lights an get amps then multiply that by volts. I would assume the volts is 12. So example 12volts x 8 amps =96 watts.

I see no reason why not. Just remember the supply wire from the battery to a switch then to the main connection point of all four lights must be able to support the total wattage of ALL the lights combined. The switch ( if there is one ) must also be able to handle the total wattage.

Since these are led, they will draw a lot less amps than regular lights, u can run these in series. If u want them to turn on with a separate switch from your already lights, then run positive wire from battery to fuse, then to switch, then to light. U can share the common ground from the other lights.

No amp is needed, but I have mine hooked up to an amp just to give them that little extra kick.

These lights don't get hot when on so I can only guess less than an amp. I use a low amp switch and the switch is cool to the touch while operating the lamps.
