Electrical question about wiring and timers :-)

(1/5) > >>

muddyjames:
I have bought a 16w 12v dc flourecsent light for the disco. It has 2 8w tubes inside it to make the 16w.

I have a 3amp 5mm cable. Will this be ok for it?

Quickly reply thanked for now as I want to wire this into the disco NOW. have new toy will play!!!

Evilgoat:
That will be ok, no worries. Draw will be about 1.3A or to be precicse :

1.3333333333333333333333... you get the idea

Horness:
Watts divided by Volts = Amps

16W divided by 12V = 1.3A

Sharpshooter:
3 amp cable is more likely 0.5 mm cable.
