Does anyone know the easiest way to make this happen? | | | | | Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Feb 2002 Posts: 12,029 | "easiest" way is convert the trailer to 6V .... or if there's other electric stuff than lights, add xtra tail lights for 6V to hook to the truck, and set up a deep cycle 12V battery in the trailer with a solar panel/charger for the rest

There's a guy on ebay who sells step ups that converts 6 to 12v with a 5 watt max it that doesn't trip your trigger.

All I want to do is make sure I have running lights. | | | | | Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 8,597 Riding in the Passing Lane | | Riding in the Passing Lane Joined: Jun 2004 Posts: 8,597 | Seems the easiest way is to change the stop/tail light bulbs to 6 volt. The side lights will still glow but will not be real bright.
