75W high beams, original wiring = problems?? 700

posted by  someone claiming to be Crazy Brick on  Sun Feb 1 09:16 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Hello folks,

I am using a set of (4) H-4 headlights and planning on installing 2 75w bulbs for the high beams (ok, they are 70/75W H4's and I'm using the 75w filiment only) with the original wiring. Anyone with experience on what an extra 1.25 amps of current draw over the reg 60w bulbs will do to my OEM wiring? Does the term baking come to mind?

Thanks in advance,

Tim
