next time your driving with full beam on pull the stick forward like your changing to dipped beam and hold it there.

notice the lights get brighter as you pull it before letting go

power takes a more direct route to the bulbs , plus there is 2 circuits.

These relays can be really useful things. I added a relay to my horn using the existing power and ground wires. After reading a thread on the samba I knew I had to do this mod, my horn was not loud enough. Now with the relay in place it's really lound, no more snickers from people I beep at!
