Underglow

Ok, so I decided to go against the grain and put some blue L.E.D.s on my camaro. I have a question about power. How long can I let them sit on while my car is shut off, before it drains the battery?

Re: Underglow

Depends on how much power they pull, and you may want to check out how much power your alternator is putting out. May not be able to recharge the battery fast enough when running the lights

Re: Underglow

What type of LEDs and how many? LEDs normally don't draw much current.

Is this something you made, or a pre-pssembled kit?

If it's something you bought, it should list the current draw.
