well let's see. there's mechanical relays and there's electrical.
mechanical relays are used for 12v systems and electrical are used for less.
a mechanical relay works from its own system to cut the power in intervals.(turn signals)
this is a mechanical relay.
an electrical uses arcs to create the strobe.
electrical relays use fillaments to create the strobe. once the fillament gets hot enough, the wire seperates. when it cools off it re connects completing the curcuit.(think blinking christmas lights)
now as far as your query on my light setup....here's your answer.
and i know your going to say..."well how do we know that that's the same setup?"
you dont but here's something to think about.
how about THREE CLL's on one board???
and just so there's no one that thinks there's some trickery here. i seperated the three so you can follow the wires.
if i had another gen1 splice i would hook up the headlights in the truck as well.
that's a total of 13 lights on three curcuits hooked to one EVO
