Hi,

I want to put one of these Cold Cathode Fluorescent Lamps into my car. I only want them to come on when my car is armed. Let's say I drive it for about 1.5hrs a day. That means this sucker will be on for 22.5hrs every day. It uses about 400mA of current. Is this a lot of power to be drawing from the battery? I mean, will this thing drain my battery out easily?

thanks.

i've heard that these don't drain much battery at all because they take such little current. i've accidently left mine on over night at least (a good 15 hours) and the car started w/ no problem.
