Anyone else leave your headlights on and come back to a dead battery?
I'm considering rewiring the headlight power source directly to the IGN & ACC. Has anyone tried this? If I do this, the headlights will turn off if I remove the ignition key? Thoughts...

So you're going to add the headlight current load to the existing current loads on those circuits? Am I reading that right?

youll need a large diode before you connect them together. also some stuff might stay on. beware of current backlash frying stuff since starting is supposed to disable the other ones during crank. i think
