Default Lights

Been alot of talk about the lights on our trucks the last couple of days here is a electrical question. how many amps are equal to 106 watts? what is the smallest wire that you can run safely with 106 watts. I have gott some ideas that i am working on, but i'll get the bugs worked out first. also how much can you upgrade a fuse? 10 amp, 15 amp maybe? your input would be helpfull to me thanks

Convert Watts to Volts:
Voltage = Watts / AMPS
E = P ÷ I


Convert Watts to AMPS:
AMPS = Watts / Voltage
I = P ÷ E


106 watts / 12 volts = 8.8333333333333333333333333333333 amps
