The only ones i have used was the SMD BOARD 36-1210 type LED 252 LUMENS from ebay china $4.99
The small size of the board startled me as well... Was expecting it to be same size as the Command Electronics 170-111 boards they replaced. I loved the way the Command electronics boards worked but couldnt live with the resulting RFI their on-bpoard regulator chip emitted. The ebay china boards dont have any such regulator chips as your photos show and they work just fine for me. I am almost two years now on 5 SMD boards I am using and only have one SMD board with three LEDs out in a roll on one board...
I am experiencing an adapter problem on one board where the spring wire isnt making good contact with the trailer 921 socket all the time. I need to slide a small insulating strip of something under the wire to keep it touching the 921 socket connection.
I also DO NOT experience any abnormal heat source from this ebay china series LED BOARDS that I have been reading about on other posts. These SMD boards will get warm but not HOT. I can place my finger right on the LED board with it "ON" and it is only warm to touch in the two dual fixures and the one single fixure they are installed in..
Me happy camper with using the $4.99 ebay china 252 LUMENS 36-1210 type LED SMD board...
I may also order the smaller LUMENS mode you were showing as well. That looks like a good deal to me as well...
Thanks for all the photos...
I think these, are the same that you ordered? I ordered five and received them in about two weeks. Installed them this evening. Definitely a whiter color than our 1141 bulbs, but the DW and I am impressed. Looks like the price has gone down $.41 since you ordered yours. I'm ordering more!
