Not Ranked
It's a 3-wire switch and I think it would have been okay with the original sealed-beam headlights. I have upgraded to 100/90 watt halogens, so I'm going to change the headlight wires in my harness to thicker gauge wires and If I'm going to do that, adding a relay would be a no brainer.
Your suggestion for a vent for cooling is probably a good idea too. I think I will cut some slots in the top & bottom of the headlight metal buckets to allow some air circulation. Normal convection will allow air to enter from slots in the bottom to flow out from the top.
Thanks,
Arthur
