[QUOTE="Stel, post: 4170936, member: 574698"] No. If the sources both have the same 12v potential (both switches on), the potential difference between the two is zero, current will not flow between the sources. If only one switch is open, again current will not flow between the sources. Current will only flow to ground, which the only path will be through the device. Yes a relay would be helpful if this were a high current device, but I highly doubt it is. OP, what is the voltage and current draw of the light? [/QUOTE]
