The solenoids are part of the high beam activation circuit. The relay they run through is the other switch for ground to activate the ballast relay. I doubt they take much current. The only difference at all between the high beam circuit and low beam circuit, at least as I intend it, is that the high beam circuit runs through the solenoids for the shields. The complication when I was trying to figure this out was keeping from having one of the hots activating the other circuit, if that makes any sense. If you reverse the positioning of the two activation relays you migth be able to see what I mean.
