[Spridgets] horn amps?

[Bill L]

Hello Mark,

we have a winner! a 4 amp draw gives 8 amps for dual horns as factory
equipped, meaning that although the wiring is more than adequate, (#12
wire being good for 20 amps) the contact in the horn push may not be
up to the task as designed from the factory.

In goes a relay. 


>Bill,  The horn is a "buzzer" and the initial current draw is in excess of
>20 amps per horn until they get moving.   The average current drain is about
>4 amps each when they are at room temp and working.  Old dirty ones are more
>or less.  At least that is what I see with a pair of TR horns I have in a
>box under my bench.  Send ear plugs!
