Comparator (lm2903) help
If you want to drive a ground-referred load with a high side driver and waste as  little power as possible you'll need to use a PMOS FET and reverse the sense of the inputs to the comparator, like this:

The diode's in there just in case the 13 ohm load is a relay or a horn...



Here's the LTspice circuit list just in case yuou want to play with the circuit:
