12 volt flasher in 6 volt system by Masospaghetti
Working on a 6-volt electrical system, and the 6-volt flashers are kinda hard to come by (and more expensive then the 12-volt ones!) The flashers work with amperage, right? If I used a 12-volt flasher, i'd just have half the total wattage that i'd have with a 6-volt?

Air conditioning vs DRL by
At one point, it was suggested that disabling DRL's was a fuel saving issue, and calculations show that for a large numbers of cars and miles driven, there is a finite savings in fuel.
