T5 wedge type incandescent conversion to LED

Question

Has anyone converted their old 12v/10w T5 wedge incandescent bulbs to a T5 wedge LED equivalent? I was directed to Amazon for best prices, but I'm overwhelmed by the choices available. I have had disappointing brightness (low) in the past.

T5's are supposed to gave a 5MM wide base on them.

many of the hite on Amazon are actually T10.

I have a few T5 leds, likely a decade old with very few hours on them

Very bluish color, not very bright.

Offerings of today likely much much better, but can only be so bright due to limited space in which to apply LED chipsets.

just purchased these on Amazon and I like the warm light they have. Great price and just remember if a bulb doesn't work.. flip it around.. they are polarity sensitive.
