The lighting consumes electricity; specifically watts, which is amps times
volts. The less volts available then the more amps required. Amps cause
heat. So check your charging system to make sure you're getting sufficient
voltage out of it. Then pay attention to connections and switches. Dirty
contacts and connections take amps to push through them. Thus heat, too, and
downstream there will be less volts which exacerbates the problem.
