Will I burn out a 6 volt original 1941-46 truck horn if it is powered by 12 volts? | | | | | Joined: Aug 2005 Posts: 6,377 Ex Hall Monitor | | Ex Hall Monitor Joined: Aug 2005 Posts: 6,377 | Nope, unless you try to wake the dead by laying on it for an extended period. As a kid my dad would go to the salvage yard & buy a six volt horn every time we traded cars. They were much louder on 12v & dad liked loud. Just use it as you do a normal 12v horn and you'll have no issues.
