    Bigger Battery?

    Just made a custom light bar on my front grill and i'm just wondering if I need a bigger battery for all my lights. I got 55 Watt 4300K Xenon Halogen Lamps 10,000K Blue Parking Light in the fog light slots and 12 AMP 55 Watt Halogen H3.

    I don't have the light bar lights wired up yet, also don't plan to use all fogs at the same time. Would just wiring all the lights up to the battery but not even having them on affect the battery? Would I need a bigger battery?

    Wiring them up but not using them should have zero effect on the battery.

    I doubt the extra electrical draw will be a problem when you are running them.
