14.7 is very high voltage...most converter/chargers like my PD run at 13.6 and even in boost mode are only 14.1. Maybe unplug from shore power so you have battery voltage back in the 12.6 range and see if the lights work. If not, I would say you friend them!
PDs are supposed to do 14.4, but newer ones meant for Li batts do 14.6.
If you are only seeing 14.1 from yours at the battery (as opposed to at the converter, you have a wiring issue.
14.7 is not "very high", since that is a common voltage specification for many batteries to be recharged at. So RV LEDs should be able to take that.
Many Rvers have switched to LED and are happy, so either they got the good ones or maybe never used a higher voltage that would fry them.
Thanks to all for the good info. Learning the hard way is my usual method! :(
