I changed out all the regular bulbs with 48 LED panels. I bought 7000k LED's and it was bright white. I took them all out and will order the warm white 4000k. When I had the regular bulbs lit up the converter fan would kick on they used so much power. Hope to avoid the heat as well.
I put the 7000k LED'S in a older trailer that had a dark interior and they don't seem to be as harsh. The older RV has blue interior and the colors don't seem as washed out with the 7000K LED's.
Don't buy new LEDs, you can buy lighting "gels" that are specifically made for the purpose of correcting the color temp of LEDs.
For blueish LEDs from 7000K up you can buy a filter gel that can bring that down to 3200K
Lee filters #622 can do that. If you want a bit higher in color temp you can buy a Lee filter that does not filter down as much so you can customize the light to what you like..
LEE LED CTO FILTER (choose LED Conversion Tungsten white light on cool LEDS)
You can find them on Amazon and yeah a bit pricy but you will get a very large sheet of filter material that should do all of your fixtures plus more..
This way you don't need to buy new LEDs then have to throw out the ones you don't like..
