Do I need a relay for my foglamps?

[OTEP]

Ikakabit ko na kasi (finally) yung Hella Comets na galing kay KimpOy. Ang tanong ko lang ay kailangan ba nito ng relay? May four prong 30A relay ako dito sa bahay (Hella). Pwede na ba iyon?

Maraming salamat.

Thank you nga din pala kay sir Sheep for the aluminum angle bar.

Post ako ng pics kapag natapos ang proyekto bukas.

hindi ba malambot yung aluminum angle bar? baka mag vibrate yung mga foglamps mo.

sir otep,

mas maganda kung may relay at may sariling linya (wire to the fuse box, separate fuse din) yung fog lamps mo.

yes you need relay so that the swith will not bear the load. DIY ang pagkabit ng relay.

sir otep dont mention it post ka lang pics .

So pwede na yung relay ko? Yup, I will get a fuse for it when I get a switch. Thanks for reminding me guys.

Boybi,

Magaan lang yung fogs ko. Matigas yung angle bar. Pwee nang pamukpok.

Just installed a Comet 500 the other day and it is better for you to have a relay. A 30A relay is more than enough coz a 100w x 2 bullbs will only drain less than 20A. Pag wala kasing relay masusunog yung contacts ng switch mo. Did you get the driving lamps or the fog lamps? I changed mine to the Comet 500 driving lamps coz my big horn has a PIAA fog lamps and sabog yung light profile niya. As designed, pang foggy condition siya. Yung driving lamps ng Hella mas concentrated sa gitna yung beam giving you longer visibility for better reaction. Just sharing the info.

Sir garyq,

Actually, sabi ni ser Kim imitation Comets po ang mga ito. I think fog ang pattern niya (low and wide).

Thank you for enlightening me on the relay thing. I'm going to get the switch kina Glenn. For trucking applications ata iyon. Ganda kasi, eh.

Pwede na yung Hella relay. Use thicker wires as well para may option ka to use 100W bulbs if you want.
