I have 2 4 OUTPUT Whelen Power Supplys with 4 green strobes. I am picking up 4 other stobes for the other power supply if I can run both suppys together to get a certain pattern.
I wanted to have a GREEN in the directional and headlight on both sides. Then I want to have BLUE or WHITE on both the directional and headlight. I want them hooked up wig wag but opposite for each color. For example - The LEFT SIDE headlight will be green and the directional will be BLUE. When these are on - the RIGHT SIDE headlight will be BLUE and teh directional will be GREEN. AKA - Is it possible to hook up the power supplys to work together? And if so what do I need to do it? Thanks... |

The Whelen power supplies cannot work together like that.
The only thing I can think to try is put all of the headlight strobes off of 1 power supply, and then the directional strobes on another. That way you at least make sure none of the strobes are conflicting w/ each other by being on at the same time in the same housing. To try and sync up the headlights and the directionals to get the wig wag effect you might want to try splicing the turn on switches together for both power supplies. I'd recommend a relay after the switch unless the switch can handle like 12 amps. Hopefully the power supplies are in similiar condition and turn on at the same time and you get the effect you want. If not, the only option really is the 8output power supply Whelen makes. And damn, you have more whelens in your headlights than me |

Oh and thanks for the idea as well. I think that might work for now. You think a 30 amp relay will suffice?
