Want to replace incandescent bulbs with brighter LED
Has anyone tried these and if so are they really as bright as they claim?

If I did get these to try I'm really torn on the color to get. Warm white seems like it might give a little more homey atmosphere inside the RV. Natural white might be a little less yellowish. I'm sort of hesitant of getting the super white in fear of giving the appearance of a sterile operating room.
3500K is a pretty decent compromise, not as yellow as 2700K-3000K but not as harsh of a blueish light of 6000K.
The incandescent you are replacing are 2700K or a bit below that..
I know a lot of folks love to get 5000K-6500K but to me it turns everything a harsh bluish light like you get when arc welding and throws a lot of shadows so I shy away from that high of color temps.
In my home, I have found 3500K-4100K pretty comfortable and in my RV I have 3500K LEDs which for myself works great.
For the under $30 for qty of 20, they are inexpensive enough that if you don't like the color, just replace with a different color..
