Neon Light Usage????

[Frandy]

Hey guys,

How long are footwell neons meant to be left on for as a maximum?? Is it about 2 hours or something?? I read it somewhere, i just forgot, and now im confused And a line locker is a 1 min max usage isnt it??

Cheers :yeah:

neons shouldn't be left on for more than 3 hours.

 

[Frandy]

ok no worries so about a 3 hour limit on all neons??

i had my footwell neons & washers jets on, in my old car. all the way from melbourne to sydney, which was almost 10 hours, & i never had a problem

are we talking left on for the purposes of not having your battery die or left on for the purposes of not having the neons break? There's been several people on this forum who have accidently left them on overnight, came back to the car the next morning and it's started with no problems (and neons weren't broken for that matter). Most neons/CCFL's don't draw very much power.

lol, you can use em here in Melb, you just can't see the tube itself but the light is OK, so I understand. It's a hazard to other drivers.

because autobarn wants your money and they dont want to tell you that these neons are only legal on off road cars, like a show car
