I have then on a relay with a fuse and I have ran 100W lights on this setup before with no problem. Now they are just 55W bulbs.

are you blowing the fuse in the hot wire from the battery to the relay, or the fuse in the trigger wire from the hi-beam wire to the switch?

The hot wire is blowing the fuse. I dont have them run to the high beams or headlights at all for that matter.
