That's how I wired mine IIRC only had 4 on the roof & 2 on the bumper but the 20a cable I used for the roof never got hot even after being on an hour but what rustic has said about doubling the ampage of the cable is right & safer. It'll be like day light with them on

comming back from Scotland one night no moon & really bad weather a guy went to over take me, I switched the spots off & he just froze along side me before hitting the breaks & pulling back in behind me as he could see the road better (twisty) & stopped theire for the next 30 miles
