We all know what a POS the under hood utility lights are when it comes to power consumption. Good way to kill the battery. Most put switches on them (as I have).
The current draw is 1 amp per light so that's 2 amps total.
Well I think I've found a way to drop the current to 250 mA per light.
That's 1/2 amp total for both.
Along with this comes 3x more light.
The answer is LEDs of course, that cure all for illumination of the modern age.
There are a few issues yet to work out but what I have clicks right into the stock bulb holder. No modifications needed.
Stay tuned. I'll post details as soon as I work out a few things.
In the pic below the left side is the stock incandescent light and on the right is the LED "plug and play" replacement.
