They have the 6v composite bulbs. I used an 8amp reducer from the battery to the switch and when the circuit is closed you could boil water on the ceramic resistor in a few seconds. I don't believe there were 12v bulbs for these lights.
How can I reduce the voltage without heating the garage?
Thanks
