Someone please in a cost verses function way enlighten me here. And what is the actual cost?
So, what's the advantage of changing out your trailer or 5th wheel running and brake lights for what these new bulbs cost. Your running and brake lights are powered off your truck's battery and alternator, not your house battery.
I understand lower your amperage drain on you house battery when your dry camping from your interior lights, but your running and brake lights are not hooked up to the trailer or 5th wheel battery. I think that six or eight running lights aren't a problem for your trucks electrical charging system.
You hit my question right on the HEAD! When I first read the OP's question I had "exactly" the same thoughts. I just didn't know how to state it, so decided no comment was better than a bad comment. What's the cost savings here? I don't get it at all ... ESPECIALLY after reading these LED running light bulbs don't work right in inclement weather, as another poster (above) stated.
