Need a Relay, Right?

[zonaman]

I discovered that the docking lights on my boat have neither a fuse or a relay. The fuse is quite obvious but the relay I'm not sure about. The lights are a pair of 25 watt each LED's . Switch is 12v 20 amp 3 pin rocker. While we're at it, wire gauge (max length 10 feet ) 14 gauge ?

Appreciate advice. Thanks.

You live in Phoenix, Arizona USA. So why are you linking to a Kuwaiti website?

The link has been changed to the iBoats store, Marine Lighting section.

That's the exact light units I have on the boat. Don't really care if it's Kuwait or not. Guess ya'll do

If it helps. These are the lights I have on the boat.

25 watts at 12 volts is just a tad over 2 amps. so both lights would draw less than 5 amps. what is wrong with using your 20 amp switch? your horn draws more than 5 amps. so does your bilge pump

You don't need a relay just the proper sized fuse.
