Re: Simple Auxiliary BackUp Light install . . . .

why not tap the positive into the positive for the factory back-up lights? It would be easier than running the line to the front, mounting a switch... and the light would come on automatically.

I'll take a shot at answering my own question - is it the risk of drawing too much juice? Would the 55w be that much of an additional load?

personally, i'd like to have the flexibility to manually control that light. being able to power it on without having to throw it into reverse is a good thing.

Yep, the option of activating the light . . . . or not, was the impetus for wiring it independently.

And yes, an additional 55 watt light sharing same circuit with the existing reverse light, would be pushing the limits.
