Two car headlamp bulbs connected in parallel with draw just over 8 amps; a single one 4 amps. That's about as easy as it gets!

Watts divided by volts gives you amps.
60 watts---main beam divided by volts---12 -- gives you 5 amps.
Two headlights==10 amps.
As T-Cut says you can look up the gauge of wire and its carrying capacity on Google. |
