Probably still not enough. You need over 7 amps with the 4 LEDs and the converter.
If a switch is rated at .4amps at 115vdc, how do I figure it's rating at 20vdc? I have seen a few different ratings, I think one of them might get me to that 8amp rating. I'm not sure how to do the math part though.

Then I would be looking at getting the 15328866 relay you linked to, right? I would want a 40ohm 3w resistor? If so would a 39ohm 3watt resistor be sufficient?

If that relay and resistor are ok, I think I can buy all the parts for this project. Hopefully I can figure my way through wiring the relay. I'll know more with parts in hand. Thanks for the assistance.
