Nice mod, love that they are dimmable. I see where I might get a couple of these for home. When we converted to 12Vdc LEDs in our rig several years ago I was worried about how dim they might be compared to the incandescent bulbs they were replacing. Much to my surprise they gave off the same warm light but were much brighter as well, more than likely because we primarily used flatpanel LEDs throughout. Since then we just use one side of each dual lamp receptacle, having both sides lit was just too bright for our taste, felt like we had to shield our eyes from the sun.
