Make sure you do some detailed research on the DC to DC booster (if you go that route). As i am not sure on how many lights a single unit could run. But obviously the leds would not draw to much power. Just my 2 cents

Well it'd only take 1 connection as they all connect to a main toggle switch box which then runs to the power source and ground. So I could easily run a max of 8 lights off of that one source.

Quick search turned this up.  Looks like boats use them for lighting.

If that works, i might grab the extras you have.

Very close. Now I just need to find one that has a 30A instead of 10A output and I believe it'd work.  </ROCKIN/>

Purely aesthetic right now. They're wired and mounted, just not powered.

Will do. But the draw back is they only work on a 24v circuit so you'd also have to get a converter. 30A. That's y I'm selling the rest for so cheep. Otherwise dude, these would easily go for a few huno because these one wouldn't find on the open market.

Why do you think that the 10a won't work?  Is there a heavy draw due to the uptick in voltage with regard to amps?

It's because on the power cable, there's a 30A fuse which goes directly to the switch box. So yeah, I'm concluding that there's a significant power draw here.

Yep, thats a good sign.

LED's don't normally draw high amps.  You sure those aren't laser's? Lol

I wouldnt mind a set either if you can find a cheap way to convert to 12v, these would be perfect for my trailer
