On this note... anybody have an idea how much a typical 4cyl engine with cpu etc. uses for power when the headlights aren't on? say I was running in the day time, just powering the ignition, cpu and have everything else turned off, no DRL, radio etc. how many amps would I be pulling? I would test it on my car but... I don't have my meter with me and i don't know if it could handle the load.
