LED replacement bulbs

A lot of info here if you do a search. So much in fact it overloaded me. Buy from here or there, China this or that, lums, brightness etc.....

I went to my RV guy with RV in his parking lot closed all drapes/curtains to get dark as possible and put the LED bulb he said was closet to what I had. Did a comparison side by side so to get same light as before.

Worked out good in every fashion except one important fact.

Those things are expensive!

So we replaced just a couple at a time, starting with the ones we use most.

Still have 2 do swap out. Very pleased with results. Can go a lot longer on battery when boondocking.

I've been very happy with mine, purchased 3.5 years ago. They are a little dimmer than original incan's, but they use about 1/10 the power.

Of course, one could sink the money into a solar panel instead, and then it might not matter... depending on how much power you are using, of course.

Two years ago we replaced all the 12V automotive style bulbs(except tail lights) in and outside our 5r. Did a lot of research and ended up buying the Ming's 1156/1141 Green Long Life 330 Lumens LED Bulb. These produce a bright warm light. If I was to do this again, I would order the same LED's.

Anyone have experience or comments on replacing some/all of the incandescent bulbs with LED's?.............

A lot written about the LED replacements on these forums. My experience? I'm 2 up and 2 down. Two vendors, both promising the same quality of light, both times I'm disappointed.

In my favor was the fact I only purchased 2 bulbs each time so I've not wasted much money. They produce light, but not good enough quality to read by.

Good luck!
