Neon Powers

[gqdabien]

I wanted to hook up a lot of neon tubse and flashy lights like that with a multi plug adapter u plug into the cig. Will this Drain a lot of power? What can i do if all the lights start to dim cause of all the power i'm using? Thanks. Is there anothe rway to power up 12v, without plugign into the cig?

find any wire near where u plan to run the tubes and splice it in...ez as that..then u wont need any switch

If you plan on running "a lot," I'd suggest using a relay, otherwise, you will burn out those fuses on whatever power lines you tap to.

Relay? Whats that? sorry i'm not really into this type of stuf... Like i was planning on doing some big neon tubes near the footwells of the front seats. Is it easy to find wires there? Anywire will do?

Hey, rip off your dash trim take out the thing going into the back of the cig lighter or accesory plug, there is two wires, take a test light, find the +/- and splice into the positive wire. Then connect it to the pos wire on the neon tube or whatever, then take the neg wire from the neon and connectet it to somthing metal on the car to ground it. The light should work. then whereever you want to put the switch just cut the neg wire, and throw a switch in. You can cut into the positve wire as much as you want, i have tons of neons, and im only using the one wire from the cig lighter. There is a bonus it is on a fuse, so your neons wont blow up!
