If all the lights are standard bulbs, with just all the lights on I'd say 3.5 amps ish

That seems about right for mine then, tested the drain and with everything turned off and the bonnet latch tricked it was 0.050 amps.... drivers door drew 5amps and passenger door 3amps, i assume the drivers door was more due to the priming of the fuel pump......

Found this which was useful....
