So...haven't read this whole thread yet, but thought LEDs would be the way to go to save power when boondocking. I've got quite a few fixtures with 921s in em and a couple with 1156. I'd like some LEDs that look like incandescant lights and have about the same light output as my stock bulbs. What is a good LED? I don't want Chinese******that starts going out right away like a recent poster.
And whats this about LEDs running real hot? I thought they'd be cooler than the incandescant bulbs.
Are there any voltage concerns when replacing stock bulbs with LEDs?
Thanks.
Lots of us have Chinese "******" bulbs and panels with many, many hours on them with no problems whatsoever. Even unregulated panels have shown to tolerate equalizing-type voltages (16V.)
Agreed on the "Warm White" designation
As far as heat, yeah... I think you need to keep reading through the thread. I had thought we addressed that.
This post gave me the nerve to try some cheap 48 led panels and some smaller sets too for softer lighting. I hope to not need to use the rechargeable lights I have been.
