    Hows it going lads , bought two l.e.d warning lights for the front of my truck, just wondering how's the best way to wire them up.here's the details about them Current Draw 700mA @24v.It says on the box red wire to VDC (FUSE AT 3A) does this mean i need to connect from the battery with a fuse at 3amp? also what size does the cable need to be going from the battery to the fuse and then to the relay or can it be any size cable.Also is it better to have the fuse closer to the battery outside the cab or closer to the relay inside the cab .Any help would be great :)

    Fuse should be as close to the battery as possible, if there's a short before the fuse then you're in trouble
