Simple Smoke Stopper
#1
I have a bunch of car bulbs in my garage and happen to have some spare XT60 connectors. I thought it would be a good idea to make one of these up especially as I'm about to build my first 5" DIY

Question to all you electrical experts is amps and what would be considered a safe amount.

What would be ideal is a 15v bulb rated to 25w but I can't find one online but I've read and seen a car 12v bulb works just fine at 4S LIPO charged voltage so the questions is watts and amps

The smallest rated bulb i have is a 50w but 15v DC at 50w is pulling over 3amps which my gut feeling its too high?
