How to convert to LED lighting
Hi, I think some of you will be interested in how I converted my RV lights to LED. I initially tried 12 volt LED bulbs about 5 years go, and they were not satisfactory: they were expensive, didn'...

Received my 10-pack of LEDs today :B Oh, yeah!
They are EXACTLY what I wanted!
Thank you to all for sharing all your efforts and experiences- even the vendor info.
I have tried 2 of the so far. One is in one of my double interior fixtures, the other is in the outside porch light.
One thing to note. The bent wire contacts are very flat and so far haven't made very good contact out of the package. Simple fix. Bend them out some and hold the wires so they are lined up (not twisted to the side) when inserting. I highly doubt they will move after inserted.
I am going to let the porch light burn all night and then check heat and stuff tomorrow. I'll get some pics tomorrow eve as comparisons to OEM incandescent and the bad ones I received from another vendor.
Now that it is eve and the porch light has been on for about 4 hrs, it is very bright, as desired. I can't say if it got brighter over time, just that it got darker outside :R
Delivery time was right at the quoted limit from China. 10 pcs for $36.99 including free shipping.
