    Got a new 100w halogen, but it blows fuses. Thought I found my problem
    when my meter showed VERY low ohms on the light, but 100 W / 12 V = ~8
    amps, and if P = I^2*R still, then R = ~ 1.4 ohms ??? This just seems
    very very low. The first fuse took about a minute to blow, the second
    about 15s, the next two instantly. Does a relay fail like that? (the
    switch feeds a relay which feeds the light)
