That will result in A) a drained battery B) fused horn relay C) Burnt horn voice coil . Not in that order.

well i never had any of those problems...
1) it's not gonna drain your battery being on for 30 seconds...... 2) try using a relay capable of that much current (which isn't much) 3) a used horn at a junk yard here is 2-3 bucks, (I never blew one) but isn't 2-3 bucks once in awhile worth it if it saves your 5000 dollar stereo???
just my 2 cents
