LED interior lighting for older TC
I searched here and searched other forums and found some conflicting info on incandescent 1141 to GRV Ba15s LED direct bulb replacement lighting. Most of the info is years old, with few recent posts. ...

TinMan,
Is that because the transformer allows too high a voltage to the interior lights when plugged into 110v? If so, maybe a change in the electronic control center, or installing an in-line voltage regulator would be a good thing. Mine is the factory one installed is 1998; a long time ago, electronics-wise.

I wouldn't say too high a voltage--I would say normal charging voltage (when batteries are needing a charge).
I only use the 12v-30v (or 24v) LEDs and feel better about it. I see no variance in the light output whether on battery or shore power--or when the A/C starts. The ones I like are Gold Star. The voltage description is as follows: "8-30 volts DC including 12v and 24v; the wide-range voltage is designed to withstand RV power fluctuations."
They are a natural light to my eyes. Whiter than the incandescents they replaced, but I always thought they looked too yellow. The color temperature isn't as high as some of the LEDs I have tried, which seem almost bluish (color temperature of 4000-4500K).
