How Much Power Savings using LED's?
Just purchased 4 warm white LED panels with 20 5050 LED's. Wanted to experiment with these on my TT before purchasing more. Anyhow, one 20 5050 LED panel wasn't nearly as bright as the original 92...

I replaced 1141s with 24-5050 cob LEDs. Measured on the bench with a 12v battery:
1141 1.3a
921 1.0a
24-5050 .18 a
The 1141s are brighter than the 24-5050 but not by enough to matter in most of the fixtures we have. Well, at first, I thought the lower output was a big deal. But in real life it wasn't at all. I guess it depends if you need to have your cake and eat it too. In our case, we are fine with the fewer lumens and think it is still plenty bright. So we are using .18/1.3 or 14% of what we used to consume.
Oh yeah, we bought ours from the ebay seller 2011 led, in warm white. He's treated me very well and has great feedback. And good lights.
