I need to find out exactly what is included in the combination harness.....Let me do some searching.... I'll let you know what I find.
I am GUESSING it is one that the light switch runs a relay that turns on a fused power circuit to the light/accessory. If this is what it is, it's safer, and less likely to "cook" anyithing, but power is power, and it is all coming from the same place (the Battery), so my humble opinon is it would not draw less power.
I have a Dodge Ram Diesel that used top cook the lighting switch because all the power went though it to the headlights. I installed a harness like this to take care of that problem.
