In the process of installing a Compustar CM 7000. I would like to run 1 super bright blue LED or 2 if a separate ground while armed output is available. Anyone know if the Compustar will handle a single bright blue led or if the system has a ground when armed output? Thanks.

If your load is expected to draw more than 250 mA, use the GWA wire to trigger a relay, then use an appropriate series resistor.

Or use a latching relay from the lock wire; a normal relay will drain the battery.

Amateurs assume, don't test and have problems; pros test first. I am not a free install service.
Read the installation manual, do a search here or online for your vehicle wiring before posting.
