Led Bulbs

[Bigmoss]

Last fall I purchased a 2015 Jayco Eagle HT28 foot and want to change my regular bulbs to some softer Led bulbs. I find the ones in there now way too bright. I phoned the dealer to ask if there was a specific number led I should buy in order to not cause damage. They said they had no idea.

Searching the net there are a TON of bulbs to choose from. Does anyone know of the Jayco's use a specific model bulbs I can just order online ?

Yep. It's not difficult. Op, pull the bulbs, get the number, then search that number for LED replacement. Amazon has a huge selection!

Pull out one of your existing bulbs. The base is either wedge shaped (T10) or round bayonet (like a 1157, if memory serves). Order LEDs with the same type of base.

Any LED under 200 lumens should provide noticeably less light than your incandescents, I think. A typical 1157 incan is about 400 lumens.

2700K is yellowy light similar to incans, 3000-4000K is whiter but still has a bit of warmth. Anything higher color temp than 5000K starts to look sort of blue and harsh IMO.

If you insert an LED into the socket and it doesn't light up, usually you need to take it out, flip it over, and reinsert it. They tend to be more directional about their current flow than an incandescent.

Look on your current bulb for the bulb number, then search Amazon for that number LED. You will find a lot. I've switch some of mine as they go bad.

Any bulb less than 3000K (Kelvin) will give you a more warmer colour. Similar to regular bulbs. The higher the |Kelvin, the cooler (blue) the light. The higher number also gives you the impression they are brighter. They aren't.

I like the flat wafer ones. They have the standard automotive plug on them.

Yes but are are the plugs standard ? Usually there is a number for the bulb so it fits the socket
