Hello:
I am trying to jerry-rig a head lamp for my biking @ night...
I am wanting to power a single fog light with a 6V/2.8AH battery pack...
I know nothing about power/watts really...
So, my question is: how many watts of a bulb should I use to power the foglight for atleast 3-4 hours?
Thanks for your help!

Is the fog light meant to run off of a 6V power supply? If it is meant for a car or motorcycle, it is probably meant for a 12V power source.
Just buy a bicycle light. They are pretty cheap.

A 12v bulb will need a 7.2 1400 mah battery to go for 3 hours, if your trying to jury rig this you should go with a rechargeable Drill battery of at least 16v level that way you have plenty of reserve juice

i think it extremely is an electro-hydraulic capacity steerage pump on that one, so it sounds very similar to the alternator isn't producing right. Assuming the force belt is there and not slipping, i might get your alternator output checked. could be a unfastened cord, could be a failing alternator.
