Default Re: 6 volt relay

We use six volt starter solenoids to run headlights, particularly halogens. It takes two, one for high beam, the other low. Old car headlights suffer from voltage loss in the dash switch, the dimmer switch, bullet connectors, etc.so there is little juice left for the lamps. You feed direct battery to the solenoids, and operate them using the original wiring. They are placed on the inside left fender on a small panel. If interested, I can post photos.
