ok my friend just broke it down for me .....
earth is ground
load goes to what you are trying to power (neons, leds, fogs or w/e)
supply is coming from the battery or relay to power everything

lol ah ok local i was about to say damn stalker how do u know what the hell he is using the switch for... want the JJ secret for low power switches???



put the switch there by the cig lighter and just tap there for power /ground. The cig lighter fuse is 15A and unless ur crazy with what u plug into them u will be fine just make sure to put a fuse inline even thou the wire is short
