120v LED vs CFL vs 12v Lamps Results
Following up on another thread discussing using inverter and 120v lights with LEDs or CFLs. I have been using a CFL for a reading lamp for some years, but now have an LED bulb to make a comparison. ...

I measured a dead-steady 13.6 volts coming from the converter.
The current we added up was spread across 20 LED panels, so that would be .235 amps per panel.
These are the same boards from the same supplier that I've been using in our hybrid for some years now. So it would be reasonable to believe they live fine at 13.6 volts.
Now...if I change out to a better boost-mode charger/converter setup, what would 14.6v (or whatever it uses) do to them?
Sorry, I'll let those calculations up to you to make sure they are right. Thanks!
