Heat from the engine would kill whatever lighting equipment you put under there...wouldn't it? Why not have leads coming from the cigarette port and all the electronics inside the car with you that can be operated remotely from the outsde? The control circuitry can be tucked into the dashboard somewhere...or something.
If you want, you can just go with the portable magnetic solutions that already exist. Here's another idea too, what if you put negative and positive contacts on a magnetic bar under the hood, and have a proprietary light bar built that will have corresponding contacts as well as a toggle switch to turn on when you manually fit it to the magnet?
That way, you can remove the lighting bar when you're done, and you shouldn't have to worry about the power...
Any ideas? I kind of want a permanent install, and can be battery operated.
What say the forum?
I thought about putting a clamp to hold my McGiz Mule, only when I need it. Not sure about that?
Thank you,
