Hi folks,
Well this is my first post here and I'm after some advice.
I have recently acquired a 10W HID made by Mal Lighting;
Link here if anyone wants to check out the specs and so on:
http://www.mal-lighting.com/html/tanklamps.html
It's running from a 12V 2.3aH battery, but when turning it on from a fully charged battery a get a little light and then nothing.
Upon performing some checks, at the battery I have more or less 12V, at the switch I have the same but then at the contacts for the lamp I have only 3.04V.
I am a little new to all of this, but from this diagnoses is it a reasonably safe bet to say that the driver is my issue?
It is not a new light, so I'm not too bummed about the issues with it, plus it gives me the opportunity to have a bit of a play I was already considering an LED upgrade (inspired by Packhorse) for the light before I even purchased it so we'll see what happens.
Thanks in advance for any responses.
Joel.
