LIGHTING question:
On this vehicle I am making, I am using 2 aircraft landing lamps as
headlights/searchlights. They are 600W 28V units. Instead of running them
off of the first 4 or 5 batteries, I was thinking of running them right off
of the 36v. No one gives any data on whether a bulb like this would burn
out
in a few seconds, or would it just 1/2 the lifespan or something like that?
They typically have a 25 hr lifespan, some have 100 hr.
No, I won't be running them for a long time, but I feel this level of
absurdity is needed for my new vehicle. It already will have a stereo and
police siren.
Maybe someone out there knows a little about lamps and can give me their
guess as to how these things will work out?
