is there a good LED for 921 bulb in range hood?
I have the below Ventline range hood. Is there an LED replacement for the 921 that can stand up to the high heat environment of a 3 burner cook top?

Heat is not a big issue, but LED size is.
I used this LED.
The problem is - in my particular hood the "disc" of LED goes a fraction of inch beyond the cut-out in the hood. Your cut-out might be different, otherwise you'll need to move the original socket a little. I'm not driving around much, so I simply pulled the socket out of the hood and let it sit on the matte cover.
Note that the LED should be about 1.5W and 150 lumen - not 300 lumen - if you want it to be an equivalent to the old 10W bulb. The one in the last post before mine is 300 lumen, equivalent to 20W bulb that you have in the ceiling fixtures. If you want it brighter than original hood light - then fine.
You may go for a flat disc like mine, or a "cob" like some other mentioned here. Cob is nicer when you want it shining to the sides like in wall scones, but in the hood the cob sitting in the cut-out and shining down won't be any better than flat disc.
