Are these safe enough to run without a relay switch? i see it's not included

It would be foolish to run it on the wire they give you with a relay, without it would be even worse. it melted the fuseholder with the wiring it came with. Use 12 or 14 gauge wiring and a relay, it will keep the switch from wearing out, and is safer, also much much brighter.

I'm not sure how this is a yes or no question. If it was me I would just buy the motion detector alone. They are available and would be of better quality and higher amperage, to cover your relay.

No, no need for a relay. There isnt enough amperage. I've had mine for a while with no problem the only thig id do is use different (more durable) wire.

you can wire them as you like. I have them on a separate switch. by the way they are excellent and worth the moneyYou may want to put some silicon to the joints. I have four of them and one took some water.......

No relay needed. 1Positive wire from meter to battery number 1 positive lead. And 1 negative write from meter to last battery negative. Voila!

Yes they are really simple to switch and use, it would be best to put them up high out of reach so they can't turn them off/on. :)

They go to a separate Relay... (integrated) I have them on my Jeep, they draw too many amps.. Its best to wire them with the relay and separate switch it comes with. Good chance burning up your system...

I didn't use any relays, since they are LED the current draw is low, If my math is correct, each light draws about 1.5 amps.. I'm using them as back-up lights for my 2003 Ram 2500.

It's recommend. The hids may draw a sudden surge of power when initially turned on, causing weird electrical problems. This relay will isolate them power wise from the rest of the electrical system. I recommend it highly.

You can wire them to a switch. But the wire is really short on these. I trashed mine they were going to take way to much sodering for my liking.

The wires are not provided, but they provide the relay. You'll need to purchase wires and figure out where/how to route wires.

Yeah, easy, just get a relay from your autoparts store or they don't work. It's like 8 bucks.

Morn', my Rav must not need a relay, or it's built in. No it didn't come with 1.

The relay contacts do not supply power. You use them as a switch for the power you wish routed through them.If you are that unfamiliar with power control devices, then you may consider not working with high voltage circuits.This is pretty basic stuff... the relay closures are not a switched AC outlet.

The outputs are "relays", which are mechanical contacts. They therefore do not have a minimum current load.

yes , they worked for me. mount under dash for weather protection. run 2 (12 ga.) wires 1 red and 1 black from battery to the junction blocks . run accessory wires to the blocks. use terminals or bare wires to make connections. you should be good to go.

i just put them on a utv. becarefull with the my friend pulled the wires out of one. put a a relay in line. or check jc witney for controll
