| The other night I was riding and I had headlights on and all 4 lights on my top on, and the radio cut off so I turned two lights off the radio cut back on? My question is this do I need to upgrade my electrical system to run this top or is something going bad on my rhino? | |

| Your probably just pulling to many amps. You need to put a meter on Your battery and check with everything off first. Should be around 12.5. Then start it up and check with nothing extra on. Should be around 13.7. If all is good so far, start turning stuff on and see what is pulling so much. If it gets below around 12.5, Your pulling more than the charging system will handle. Let Us know there is a couple solutions | |

| the j strong top pulls some amps..... We ran a few batterys down with amps, lights, and radios...... found it worked better if we trickle the battery before the ride overnight... Just a thought | |

| That was the reason I removed the 4 lights on the top and installed 2 LED lights. After about 20 minutes the 4 lights were not as bright and the headlights looked yellow!! The 2 LED lights draw less power than 1 of the original lights. | |

| If I had a Jstrong roof, I would replace all 4 lights with some cube leds, and I bet the problem would be solved. Plus, you would have much more light. I will never buy another aftermarket light that is not led.
I bet two spot pattern, and two flood or driving pattern cubes would be real nice in that roof. | |
