And in addition.. What I wanted to say before the above:
If you know how to read the specifications there is a lot of info, Some manufactures are good enough to give you full specifications including
Number of Lumens, Color Temperature and voltage/current requirements.
Some are made in china and nobody has translated.
Recommendation: IF you can try before you buy (I carry a 12 volt battery on occasion)
OR, if buying remotely (WWW-something) order one, then more if they are good. I did not do that and got a bunch of junk my first order.. I learned.
ECO-LED, about 18-20 bucks a pop at your local RV dealer.. Good performer, their 1141 replacement is.. if anything, a bit brighter and whiter than a genuine 1141 Not sure how it stands up to a 1156 but this I know for a fact.. LOTS LESS HEAT.
