Who plays electric 12 out there. What kind of strings do you use. I am currently using 10's and looking for something lighter/faster.

It is typical with any 12 string to use a slightly lighter gauge string than you would on a six string. The only problem I can see is that you are already using a .008 for the octave string in the G course, so you will not be able to find a smaller gauge string. You could make a custom set out of an extra light set and make up the octave strings out of singles. Check out D'Addario's website, and look at the gauges they have for the extra light acoustic twelve string set.

GHS used to make 7 guage strings, not sure if they still do.

They are not in the catalog, and have not been for quite some time.

I had a Ric 366/12 that I strung up with .011s but the action was so low on that they felt like .009s... you can't get very big on the high G string, you understand.
