Whelen 8 Degree PAR46 LED

Post by MoCo9C1 »

I am trying to remove my existing 100w unity halogen and replace it with a WHELEN PARMETHEUS PLUS SUPER LED REPLACEMENT LIGHT - 28V PAR 46 ( flood light ). Is the existing orange wire that connects to the existing handle for the halogen bulb strong enough to power the NEW WHELEN PARMETHEUS PLUS SUPER LED REPLACEMENT LIGHT - 28V PAR 46?

The orange wire will supply plenty of current for a 12V rated LED bulb as they pull a lot less amperage than a halogen bulb. You are asking about a 28V rated LED, which unless it has a dual voltage capability, will not work on a 12V system.
