The New Era relay that stuck on me was the old type you describe- I haven't looked at anything similar since. Can't quite recall what relay I was comparing the starter solenoid to, was a while back, might check the figures again but definitely recall the current draw for the starter solenoid was the same as what I had been using. Have not looked back since installing the heavy relay, runs 4x100w regularly and has done since mid 2000. Installed a second one for my additional bull lamps that go on the roof for trips, wanted to be able to switch them independently.
